Glutathione-Related Enzymes and Proteins: A Review
The tripeptide glutathione is found in all eukaryotic cells, and due to the compartmentalization of biochemical processes, its synthesis takes place exclusively in the cytosol.

Glutathione and mitochondria [PDF]
Glutathione (GSH) is the main non-protein thiol in cells whose functions are dependent on the redox-active thiol of its cysteine moiety that serves as a cofactor for a number of antioxidant and detoxifying enzymes. While synthesized exclusively in the cytosol from its constituent amino acids, GSH is distributed in different compartments, including ...

GLUTATHIONE DETERMINATION AND A STUDY OF THE ACTIVITY OF GLUTATHIONE-PEROXIDASE, GLUTATHIONE-TRANSFERASE, AND GLUTATHIONE-REDUCTASE IN RENAL TRANSPLANTS [PDF]
The aim of this work is to study the temporary variation of oxidative stress in renal transplants, both in plasma and in erythrocytes (CR). In order to do so, we determined total glutathione (GST) levels, both oxidized (GSSG) and reduced (GSH), and the activity of enzymes, glutathione peroxidase (G-px), glutathione reductase (G-red) and glutathione ...

Glutathione in Brain Disorders and Aging
Glutathione is a remarkably functional molecule with diverse features, which include being an antioxidant, a regulator of DNA synthesis and repair, a protector of thiol groups in proteins, a stabilizer of cell membranes, and a detoxifier of xenobiotics ...

Glutathione Metabolism in Plants under Stress: Beyond Reactive Oxygen Species Detoxification
Glutathione is an essential metabolite for plant life best known for its role in the control of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Glutathione is also involved in the detoxification of methylglyoxal (MG) which, much like ROS, is produced at low levels by ...
