Vectors for Chicken GPX2

Gene Information

  • Offical Gene Symbol GPX2
  • Species Chicken (Gallus gallus)
  • Offical Full Name glutathione peroxidase 2
  • Other Aliases -
  • Other Desigations glutathione peroxidase 2; glutathione peroxidase 2 (gastrointestinal)
  • Gene Type protein-coding
  • Summary
    The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family, members of which catalyze the reduction of organic hydroperoxides and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) by glutathione, and thereby protect cells against oxidative damage. Several isozymes of this gene family exist in vertebrates, which vary in cellular location and substrate specificity. This isozyme is predominantly expressed in the gastrointestinal tract, is localized in the cytoplasm, and whose preferred substrate is hydrogen peroxide. It is also a selenoprotein, containing the rare amino acid selenocysteine (Sec) at its active site. Sec is encoded by the UGA codon, which normally signals translation termination. The 3\' UTRs of selenoprotein mRNAs contain a conserved stem-loop structure, designated the Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element, that is necessary for the recognition of UGA as a Sec codon, rather than as a stop signal.
