Protein
Peroxiredoxin-2E, chloroplastic
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Function
Thiol-specific peroxidase that catalyzes the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxides to water and alcohols, respectively. Plays a role in cell protection against oxidative stress by detoxifying peroxides (By similarity). May be involved in chloroplast redox homeostasis (Probable).
Similarity
Belongs to the peroxiredoxin family. Prx5 subfamily.
