MGST1, a GSH transferase/peroxidase essential for development and hematopoietic stem cell differentiation. [PDF]
, 2018 We show for the first time that, in contrast to other glutathione transferases and peroxidases, deletion of microsomal glutathione transferase 1 (MGST1) in mice is embryonic lethal.

Glutathione Peroxidase 4 Is Required for Maturation of Photoreceptor Cells [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2012 Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathologies of photoreceptor cells, and the protective role of antioxidant enzymes for photoreceptor cells have been well understood. However, their essentiality has remained unknown. In this study we generated photoreceptor-specific conditional knock-out (CKO) mice of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4) and showed the

Structure–activity Relationships of Glutathione Peroxidase 4 Inhibitor Warheads [PDF]
, 2020 Direct inhibition of GPX4 requires covalent modification of the active-site selenocysteine. While phenotypic screening has revealed that activated alkyl chlorides and masked nitrile-oxides can inhibit GPX4 covalently, a systematic assessment of potential electrophilic warheads with the capacity to inhibit cellular GPX4 has been lacking.

1H, 13C, and 15N resonance assignments of human glutathione peroxidase 4
Biomolecular NMR Assignments, 2022 Abstract Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4) behaves as an antioxidant enzyme capable of directly reducing peroxidized phospholipids within cell membranes. Recently, GPx4 has attracted attention as a target molecule for cancer therapy because it induces the immortalization of cancer cells suppressing ferroptosis.
