Journal ArticleDOI
Deposition of dietary organic and inorganic selenium in rat erythrocyte proteins.
TL;DR: The dietary forms of Se influence the relative distribution of Se between GPx and Hb in erythrocytes, and this may be a factor contributing to the difference between human and animal ery Throatcytes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification and properties of selenoprotein W from rat muscle.
S C Vendeland,M. A. Beilstein,Chao-Long Chen,O N Jensen,Elisabeth Barofsky,Philip D. Whanger +5 more
TL;DR: Following injection with [75Se]selenite, a low molecular weight 75Se-selenocysteine containing protein was purified from rat muscle and appears to be a new selenoprotein, and it is named selenobrotein W.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of dietary selenite, selenocystine and selenomethionine on selenocysteine lyase and glutathione peroxidase activities and on selenium levels in rat tissues.
TL;DR: The Se content in testis, muscle, pancreas, heart, spleen, whole blood, erythrocytes and plasma was significantly higher in rats fed SeMet than in those fed either selenite or SeCys.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selenoprotein W of rat muscle binds glutathione and an unknown small molecular weight moiety.
TL;DR: The presence of glutathione in isolated selenoprotein W may suggest its involvement in the metabolism of this tripeptide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rat skeletal muscle selenoprotein W: cDNA clone and mRNA modulation by dietary selenium
TL;DR: RNA folding algorithms predict a stem-loop structure in the 3' untranslated region of the selenoprotein W mRNA that resembles selenocysteine insertion sequence (SE-CIS) elements identified in other selencysteine coding cDNAs.
