    Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • [thioredoxin]-disulfide + 2'-deoxyribonucleoside 5'-diphosphate + H2O --> [thioredoxin]-dithiol + ribonucleoside 5'-diphosphate (according to UniProt)
  • required for stationary-phase mutagenesis PubMed

    Kinetic information

  • Steady-state kinetics PubMed
  • Effectors of protein activity
