Abstract
⺠The ER contains GPx7, a Cys-glutathione peroxidase missing a resolving Cys. ⺠The catalytic Cys is oxidized at a fast rate by hydroperoxides. ⺠GSH binds to the active site, but the release of the reduced enzyme is slow. ⺠GPx7 is competent for a fast oxidation of PDI. ⺠Kinetics suggest that physiological GSH regulates the oxidation of PDI by GPx7.
