Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
methylmercury a single administration of methylmercury (1, 5, and 10 mg/kg) causes a marked inhibition of kidney TrxR activity, while significant inhibition is observed in the liver 24 h after exposure to 5 and 10 mg/kg. In the brain, methylmercury does not inhibit TrxR activity. Methylmercury can bind to selenocysteine residues present in the catalytic site of TrxR, in turn causing enzyme inhibition that can compromise the redox state of cells Mus musculus
