Interpro abstract (IPR004911): | In humans, GILT (gamma-interferon-inducible lysosomal thiol reductase) functions in MHC class II-restricted antigen processing and MHC class I-restricted cross-presentation by reducing disulfide bonds of endocytosed proteins and facilitating their unfolding and optimal degradation [ (PUBMED:23246037) (PUBMED:21506690) ]. Several other functions of GILT have also been found, for instance, GILT can act as a host factor for Listeria monocytogenes infection and is involved in the maintenance of cellular glutathione (GSH) levels [ (PUBMED:23246037) ]. GILT is characterised by a CXXC motif in the active site and an enzymatic mechanism in which the pair of active site cysteine residues cooperate to reduce substrate disulfide bonds [ (PUBMED:23246037) ]. The GIL homologues from Drosophila melanogaster may play a role in the innate immune response upon bacterial challenge [ (PUBMED:24491521) ]. |
