[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/THIO2_PLAF7 THIO2_PLAF7] Participates in various redox reactions through the reversible oxidation of its active center dithiol to a disulfide and catalyzes dithiol-disulfide exchange reactions (PubMed:16910770, PubMed:22355694). As part of the translocon PTEX complex, plays a role in the export of parasite proteins into the host erythrocyte (By similarity). The translocon PTEX complex is a multi-protein machinery resident in the parasite parasitophorous vacuolar membrane, responsible for protein secretion into host cells (PubMed:19536257). May contribute to the unfolding of proteins containing the PEXEL localization motif before their passage through the translocon or regulate the PTEX complex function (PubMed:19536257).[UniProtKB:A0A509AQW5]<ref>PMID:16910770</ref> <ref>PMID:19536257</ref> <ref>PMID:22355694</ref> <ref>PMID:19536257</ref>

Thioredoxins are vital components of Plasmodium proteome and act as both reducing agents and protein disulfide reductases. The malaria parasite P. falciparum thioredoxin-2 (PfTrx-2) is part of the multi-protein complex embedded within the parasite parasitophorous vacuolar membrane (PVM) which purportedly directs protein secretion. We have characterized structural and enzymatic features of PfTrx-2, and we show that PfTrx-2 adopts a canonical thioredoxin fold but with significant structural differences in its N-terminus. Our confocal localization data suggest distinct PVM residency of PfTrx-2. Based on the crystal structure of PfTrx-2, we screened and tested small molecule drug-like libraries for compounds which target unique structural features of PfTrx-2. Disruption of PfTrx-2 interactions using specific inhibitors may result in a dysfunctional parasite translocon that is rendered unable to secrete pathogenic proteins into hosts. This approach therefore offers a new focus for anti-malarial drug development.
