Selenite (SeO32−) assimilation into a bacterial selenoprotein depends on thioredoxin (trx) reductase in Esherichia coli, but the molecular mechanism has not been elucidated. The mineral-oil overlay method made it possible to carry out anaerobic enzyme assay, which demonstrated an initial lag-phase followed by time-dependent steady NADPH consumption with a positive cooperativity toward selenite and trx. SDS-PAGE/autoradiography using 75Se-labeled selenite as substrate revealed the formation of trx-bound selenium in the reaction mixture. The protein-bound selenium has metabolic significance in being stabilized in the divalent state, and it also produced the selenopersulfide (-S-SeH) form by the catalysis of E. coli trx reductase (TrxB).
