Clone lambda a26.1 isolated from rat olfactory epithelium contains a full-length 28-kDa protein cDNA (1414 b.p.). The reconstructed protein sequence comprises 223 aa with a calculated molecular mass of 24,630 Da. A substantial homology was revealed between the amino acid sequence of the 28-kDa protein and those of thiol-specific antioxidants (peroxiredoxines). The 28-kDa protein belongs to the 1 Cys-subfamily of peroxiredoxines and is the first member of peroxiredoxines identified in the olfactory epithelium.
