| Abstract | Specificity and efficiency of thiored oxin action upon the 2-oxoacid dehydrogenase complexes are studied by using a number of thiored oxins and complexes. Bacterial and mammalian pyruvate and 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase systems display similar row of preference to thioredoxins that may result from thioredoxin binding to the homologous or common dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase components of the complexes. The most sensitive tothioredoxin is the complex whose component exhibits the highest sequence similarity to eukaryotic thioredoxin reductase. Hence, thioredoxin binding to the complexes may be related to that in the thioredoxin reductase, a dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase homolog. The highest potency of mitochondrial thioredoxin to affect the mitochondiral complexes is revealed. A 96–100% conservation of the mitochondrial thioredoxin structure is shown within the four known sequences and the N-terminus of the pigheart protein determined. Eleven thioredoxins tested biochemically are analyzed by multiple sequence alignment and homology modeling. Their effects correlate with the residues at the contact between the α 3/3$_{10}$ and α 1 helices, the length of the α 1 helix and charges in the α2–β3 and β4–β5 linkers. Polarization of the thioredoxin molecule and its active site surroundings are characterized. Thioredoxins with a highly polarized surface around the essential disulfide bridge (mitochondiral, pea f, and Arabidopsis thaliana h3) show low cross-reactivity as compared to the species with a decreased polarization of this area (e.g., from Escherichia coli). The strongest polarization of the whole molecule results in the highest magnitude of the electrostatic dipole vector of mitochondrial thioredoxin. Thiored oxins with the dipole orientation similar to that of the latter have the affinities for the 2-oxoacid dehydrogenase complexes, proportional to the dipole magnitudes. Thioredoxin with an opposite dipole orientation shows no effect. Activating and inhibitory thioredoxin disulfides are distinguished by the charges of the residues 13/14 (α1 helix(, 51 (α2–β3 linker), and 83/85 (β4–β5 linker), changing the dipole direction. The results show that the thioredoxin-target interplay may be controlled by the long-range interactions between the electrostatic dipole vectors of the proteins and the degree of their interface polarization. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
