Effect of 2-Cys Peroxiredoxins Inhibition on Redox Modifications of Bull Sperm Proteins.

ABSTRACT: Sperm peroxiredoxins (PRDXs) are moonlighting proteins which, in addition to their antioxidant activity, also act as redox signal transducers through PRDX-induced oxidative post-translational modifications of proteins (oxPTMs). Despite extensive knowledge on the antioxidant activity of PRDXs, the mechanisms related to PRDX-mediated oxPTMs are poorly understood. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of bull sperm 2-Cys PRDX inhibition by Conoidin A on changes in oxPTM levels under control and oxidative stress conditions. The results showed that a group of sperm mitochondrial (LDHAL6B, CS, ACO2, SDHA, ACAPM) and actin cytoskeleton proteins (CAPZB, ALDOA, CCIN) is oxidized due to the action of 2-Cys PRDXs under control conditions. In turn, under oxidative stress conditions, 2-Cys
