Figure 6. Inhibition of auranofin on enzymatic activities of recombinant SjTGR.

Figure 6

(A) Percentages of TrxR, GR and Grx activities inhibited by different doses of auranofin with DTNB, GSSG or HED as substrate. (B) Inhibition constant (Inline graphic) values of auranofin on recombinant SjTGR in the TrxR assay. The straight lines were fitted on the basis of the reciprocal of concentration of substrate and initial velocity. The concentrations of auranofin were 0 nM, 5 nM, 10 nM and 15 nM, and DTNB ranged from 60 to 1,000 µM. (C) Inhibition constant (Inline graphic) values of auranofin on SjTGR in the GR activity assay. The straight lines were fitted on the basis of the reciprocal of concentration of substrate and initial velocity. The concentrations of auranofin were 0 nM, 5 nM, 10 nM and 20 nM, and GSSG ranged from 10 to 100 µM.
