Crystal structure of plasmoredoxin, a redox-active protein unique for malaria parasites

Plasmoredoxin is a 22 ​kDa thiol–disulfide oxidoreductase involved in cellular redox regulatory processes and antioxidant defense. The 1.6 ​Å structure of the protein, solved via X-ray crystallography, adopts a modified thioredoxin fold. The structure reveals that plasmoredoxin, unique for malarial...
