Thioredoxin reductase 1, cytoplasmic is a member of the family of pyridine nucleotide oxidoreductases.
This protein reduces thioredoxins as well as other substrates, and plays a role in selenium metabolism and protection against oxidative stress.
The functional enzyme is thought to be a homodimer which uses FAD as a cofactor.
Each subunit contains a selenocysteine (Sec) residue which is required for catalytic activity.
The selenocysteine is encoded by the UGA codon that normally signals translation termination.
The 3' UTR of selenocysteine-containing genes have a common stem-loop structure, the sec insertion sequence (SECIS), that is necessary for the recognition of UGA as a Sec codon rather than as a stop signal.
Alternative splicing results in several transcript variants encoding the same or different isoforms.
