Abstract
The thioredoxin system—formed by thioredoxin reductase and its characteristic substrate thioredoxin—is an important constituent of the intracellular redox milieu. Interactions with many different metabolic pathways such as DNA‐synthesis, selenium metabolism, and the antioxidative network as well as significant species differences render this system an attractive target for chemotherapeutic approaches in many fields of medicine—ranging from infectious diseases to cancer therapy. In this review we will present and evaluate the preclinical and clinical results available today. Current trends in drug development are emphasized. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract This paper describes the cloning, purification and characterization of thioredoxin (TrxA) and thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) from bacterial strain __Streptomyces coelicolor__ . The genes of __S. coelicolor__ encoding TrxA and TrxR were amplified by polymerase chain reaction, inserted into
