Protein
Putative sulfiredoxin
Organism
Drosophila melanogaster
Function
Contributes to oxidative stress resistance by reducing cysteine-sulfinic acid formed under exposure to oxidants in a peroxiredoxin. May catalyze the reduction in a multi-step process by acting both as a specific phosphotransferase and a thioltransferase (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the sulfiredoxin family.
