Product details

Although we aim to provide customers with a homozygous clone, feasibility will be dependent on the biology of the protein. Should only heterozygous edits be achieved, you will be notified of the outcome and be asked to confirm whether the cell line is acceptable. All clones will be accompanied with DNA sequencing data, and the mutation description.

Recommended control: Human wild-type Raji cell line (ab275473). Please note a wild-type cell line is not automatically included with a knockout cell line order, if required please add recommended wild-type cell line at no additional cost using the code WILDTYPE-TMTK1.

This product is subject to limited use licenses from The Broad Institute and ERS Genomics Limited, and is developed with patented technology. For full details of the limited use licenses and relevant patents please refer to our limited use license and patent pages.

Supplementary information

Peroxiredoxin 5 (Prdx5) acts as a peroxidase reducing hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxides and protecting cells from oxidative damage. This protein also known as AOEB166 and PRDX6 has a molecular mass of approximately 17 kDa. Prdx5 is widely expressed across various tissues including lung liver heart kidney and brain where it performs protective and regulatory roles. It localizes within multiple cell compartments such as mitochondria peroxisomes and the cytosol.
Biological function summary

Prdx5 plays a role in reducing oxidative stress which helps to maintain cellular homeostasis. It is part of the large family of peroxiredoxins known for their antioxidant activity. Prdx5 interacts with other antioxidants within the cell to mitigate damage from reactive oxygen species (ROS). Its multifunctionality allows it to act both as an antioxidant and a molecular chaperone under certain stress conditions helping cells adapt to challenging environments.

Pathways

Prdx5 functions within the antioxidant defense system and participates in the regulatory networks that control oxidative stress responses. It is an element of the thioredoxin system working alongside thioredoxin and thioredoxin reductase to neutralize ROS. Additionally it contributes to the signaling pathways of apoptosis by controlling ROS levels which can impact cell viability and proliferation.

The malfunction or dysregulation of Prdx5 associates with cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Elevated ROS levels can contribute to tumor progression and have been observed in cancerous tissues where Prdx5 may have altered expression. In neurodegeneration such as Alzheimer's disease Prdx5's role in oxidative stress management potentially affects disease progression. Connections exist between Prdx5 and proteins like amyloid-beta in Alzheimer's illustrating its importance in both protective and pathological contexts.
