Sulfiredoxin (Srx) is a redox active protein that participates in the reduction of oxidized cysteine residues. Here we identify a novel function of Srx through its specific binding to S-glutathionylated S100A4 affecting its interaction with non-muscle myosin (NMIIA), thereby modulating the effect of S100A4 on NMIIA function and impacting cell adhesion and migration. Srx forms a complex with S100A4 (and has stronger affinity for S-glutathionylated S100A4), regulates its activity, and mediates red ...[more]
