In vivo oxidation by thioredoxin regulates chloroplast enzymes activity [Plant Biology]

Thioredoxins (Trxs) are proteins that can receive or donate electrons via reduction or oxidation, respectively, of their redox-active cysteine pair, converting a disulfide to thiol or vice versa. They are involved in multiple biological processes throughout all kingdoms of life, modulating the activity of enzymes that function, for example, in...
