Structure–Function Relations, Physiological Roles, and Evolution of Mammalian ER-Resident Selenoproteins

Selenium is an essential trace element in mammals. The major biological form of this micronutrient is the amino acid selenocysteine, which is present in the active sites of selenoenzymes. Seven of 25 mammalian selenoproteins have been identified as residents of the endoplasmic reticulum, including t...
