Selenoproteins

“Selenoproteins”

Selenoprotein
In protein science, a Selenoprotein is any protein that includes a selenocysteine (Se-Cys) amino acid residue.
In our body, the selenium (Se) is a nutritional trace mineral essential for a wide range of roles in metabolism and oxidative stress defense and various health aspects. Selenium (Se) exerts its effects mainly through its incorporation into Selenoprotein as the amino acid, selenocysteine.
Twenty-five selenoprotein genes have been identified in humans and several selenoproteins are broadly classified as antioxidant enzymes.
Examples of selenoproteins include:

Selenoprotein P
Selenoprotein W
Methionine Sulfoxide Reductases
The genes in the selenoproteins gene group include:

DIO1 gene, aka iodothyronine deiodinase 1
DIO2 gene, aka iodothyronine deiodinase 2
DIO2 gene, aka iodothyronine deiodinase 3
MSRB1 Gene (SEPX1 gene), aka methionine sulfoxide reductase B1
GPX1 gene, aka glutathione peroxidase 1
GPX2 gene, aka glutathione peroxidase 2
GPX3 gene, aka glutathione peroxidase 3
GPX4 gene, aka glutathione peroxidase 4
GPX6 gene, aka glutathione peroxidase 6
SELENOF gene, aka selenoprotein F
SELENOH gene, aka selenoprotein H
SELENOI gene, aka selenoprotein I
SELENOK gene, aka selenoprotein K
SELENOM gene, aka selenoprotein M
SELENON Gene (SEPN1 gene), aka selenoprotein N
SELENOO gene, aka selenoprotein O
SELENOP gene (SEPP1 gene), aka selenoprotein P
SELENOS gene, aka selenoprotein S
SELENOT gene, aka selenoprotein T
SELENOV gene, aka selenoprotein V
SELENOW Gene (SEPW1 gene), aka selenoprotein W
SEPHS2 gene, aka selenophosphate synthetase 2
TXNRD1 gene, aka thioredoxin reductase 1
TXNRD2 gene, aka thioredoxin reductase 2
TXNRD3 gene, aka thioredoxin reductase 3

Selenium Deficiencies (Se Deficiencies)

“Selenium Deficiencies (Se Deficiencies)”

Selenium (Se) Deficiency
In our body, the protein and mRNA levels for several Selenoproteins, such as glutathione peroxidase-1 (GPX1 gene), are down-regulated dramatically by a deficiency in selenium (Se) (Selenium Deficiency).
