“…SelW is capable of binding reduced glutathione (GSH) (Jeong et al, 2002), and overexpression of SelW experiment suggested that it may be an important component of the cellular defense system against oxidative stress (Sun et al, 2001). SelW is involved in redox regulation through its interactions with 14-3-3 proteins, it is suggested that SelW is a member of the thioredoxin family (Aachmann et al, 2007;Dikiy et al, 2007). Recently, SelW gene has been cloned from humans, monkeys, rats, mice, pig, sheep (Whanger, 2009), chicken (Ou et al, 2011), and fish (Kryukov and Gladyshev, 2000).…”
