Another fantastic collaboration with the Marcel Deponte lab and Joris Messens lab!
Heterooligomerization drives structural plasticity of eukaryotic peroxiredoxins
Peroxiredoxins are highly conserved thiol peroxidases essential for peroxide detoxification, redox signaling, and chaperone activity. Prx1/AhpC-type peroxiredoxins are found throughout the eukaryotic ...
