'''Thioredoxin'''(Trx) is a protein present in all organisms, from bacterias to complex beings as humans. This page will be focused on exploring the characteristics of '''Trx1''', a cytosolic form of Trx present in eukaryotes. Trx1 has an active site composed of 2 cysteines separated by 2 aminoacids(<scene name='91/911850/Trx_cysteines_-_active_site/8'>Cys32 - X - X - Cys35</scene>) which catalyses the reduction of other thiol-proteins and becomes oxidized. It is reduced back by '''[[Thioredoxin Reductase]]'''(TrxR), which, in the end, is reduced by '''NADPH'''. Together, the two proteins and NADPH form the system Trx<ref>Lu, J.; Holmgren, A.
