List of mammalian peroxiredoxins and their age-associated phenotypes in mouse.

Isoenzyme. Type Main Subcellular Localization Age-Associated Phenotypes in Mouse Model Reference
PRX1 Typical 2-Cys Cytosol Shorter lifespan
Develop age-dependent Hemolytic anemias and various cancers in PRX1 KO mice
[28]
PRX2 Typical 2-Cys Cytosol Aggravates aging-induced insulin resistance and declines muscle strength in PRX2 KO mice [68]
Aggravates age-related ovarian failure in PRX2 KO mice [69]
PRX3 Typical 2-Cys Mitochondria Reduces the severity of age-related osteoarthritis in PRX3 overexpressing mice [70]
Reduces age-related muscle atrophy and weakness in PRX3-overexpressing mice [71]
PRX4 Typical 2-Cys Endoplasmic reticulum, extracellular space PRX4 deficiency was associated with mortality in adult and aged mice [72]
PRX5 Atypical 2-Cys Cytosol, mitochondria, and peroxisomes No age-associated phenotype reported yet N.A.
PRX6 1-Cys Cytosol, lysosomes Decreases fertility in PRX6 KO mice [73]
