Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Emiliania huxleyi thioredoxin reductase activity gradually increases 4fold within ca. 70 h when cells are transferred to the medium containing 10 nM selenite, selenium is essential for the induction of thioredoxin reductase activity at the translational level but not at the transcriptional level up
