The completion of the sequencing of the Arabidopsis genome revealed the multiplicity of plant thioredoxins, dithiol proteins involved in redox regulation, due to their ability to undergo thiol-disulfide interchanges with numerous proteins. An examination of the expressed sequence tag (EST) databanks of the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii reveals also multiple thioredoxin types, but with fewer isoforms in each type than for higher plants. The pioneering work on the Chlamydomonas thioredoxin systems, mainly based on biochemical approaches, is summarised and the EST databanks analysed from a qualitative (different ESTs) and quantitative (EST abundance) viewpoints. It is proposed that Chlamydomonas can be a suitable organism to uncover basic functions of each thioredoxin type
