Beschreibung

Glutathione peroxidase-3 (GPx-3) is a plasma protein that scavenges reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the extracellular matrix (ECM). GPx-3 is a member of the selenocysteine-containing GPx family and accounts for nearly all the glutathione peroxidase activity in plasma.GPx-3 is highly expressed in the kidney and epididymis, but is also found localised to specific basement membranes in many tissues. The principal source of plasma GPx-3 is kidney proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) cells and the amount of Gpx3 in the kidney is greater than the amount circulating in the plasma. Deficiencies in GPx-3 impair the reductive metabolism of ROS, which leads to decreases in nitrous oxide (NO) bioavailability resulting in platelet-dependent thrombosis and stroke risk in young individuals. The Leucine residue at position 10 of this peptide is isotopically labelled with carbon-13 (6) and nitrogen-15 (1), giving this peptide a mass increase of 7 compared to the unlabelled peptide.
