The product of ticularly susceptible to oxidation, but the resulting mixture of such oxidation is a diastereomeric mixture of Met sulfoxides: methionine R-sulfoxide (Met-RO) and methionine S-sulfoxide Met R-sulfoxide (Met-RO)2 and Met S-sulfoxide (Met-SO). (Met-SO) can be repaired by thioredoxin-dependent enzymes These oxidized forms, however, can be reduced back to Met by MsrB and MsrA, respectively. Here, we describe a knock-out two enzyme families, MsrA (specific for Met-SO) and MsrB mouse deficient in selenoprotein MsrB1, the main mammalian (specific for Met-RO) (4, 5).
