Prostamide/prostaglandin F2alpha synthase (EC 1.11.1.20, prostamide/PGF synthase, prostamide F synthase, prostamide/prostaglandin F synthase, tPGF synthase) is an enzyme with systematic name thioredoxin:(5Z,9alpha,11alpha,13E,15S)-9,11-epidioxy-15-hydroxy-prosta-5,13-dienoate oxidoreductase .[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

thioredoxin + (5Z,9alpha,11alpha,13E,15S)-9,11-epidioxy-15-hydroxy-prosta-5,13-dienoate thioredoxin disulfide + (5Z,9alpha,11alpha,13E,15S)-9,11,15-trihydroxyprosta-5,13-dienoate

This enzyme contains a thioredoxin-type disulfide as a catalytic group.
