Background: Protein Disulfide Isomerase/P4HB

Protein Disulfide Isomerase, also known as prolyl 4‑hydroxylase subunit beta (P4HB), protocollagen hydroxylase, cellular thyroid hormone binding protein p55 and glutathione-insulin transhydrogenase (1-3) is an abundant multifunctional enzyme that belongs to the Protein Disulfide Isomerase family. It contains two thioredoxin domains that catalyze the formation, breakage and rearrangement of disulfide bonds. When present as a tetramer consisting of two alpha subunits and two beta subunits, this enzyme functions as a hydroxylase catalyzing the hydroxylation of prolyl residues in preprocollagen. P4HB has various additional functions (4-7). It binds thyroid hormone. It acts as a chaperone that inhibits aggregation of misfolded proteins. It plays a role in both the influx and efflux of S-nitrosothiol-bound nitric oxide. It is also a subunit of the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein complex.
