gene: trxr-2 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables thioredoxin-disulfide reductase (NADP) activity. Involved in obsolete oxidation-reduction process. Located in mitochondrion. Expressed in intestine; muscle cell; nervous system; and vulva. Used to study chromosome 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, distal. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial glucocorticoid deficiency. Is an ortholog of human TXNRD2 (thioredoxin reductase 2).
