Human Glutathione Peroxidase 6, GPX6 ELISA Kit

SKU: E5344Hu

Size:96 Tests-1 Kit

Background:Glutathione peroxidase 6 (GPx-6) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the GPX6 gene. This gene product belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family, which functions in the detoxification of hydrogen peroxide. It contains a selenocysteine (Sec) residue at its active site. The selenocysteine is encoded by the UGA codon, which normally signals translation termination. The 3' UTR of Sec-containing genes have a common stem-loop structure, the sec insertion sequence (SECIS), which is necessary for the recognition of UGA as a Sec codon rather than as a stop signal. Expression of this gene is restricted to embryos and adult olfactory epithelium.
