Plant Glutathione Transferases and Light
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 The activity and expression of glutathione transferases (GSTs) depend on several less-known endogenous and well-described exogenous factors, such as the developmental stage, presence, and intensity of different stressors, as well as on the absence or ...

The Multifaceted Role of Glutathione S-Transferases in Health and Disease
Biomolecules, 2023 In humans, the cytosolic glutathione S-transferase (GST) family of proteins is encoded by 16 genes presented in seven different classes. GSTs exhibit remarkable structural similarity with some overlapping functionalities. As a primary function, GSTs play

Identification of the S-transferase like superfamily bacillithiol transferases encoded by Bacillus subtilis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Bacillithiol is a low molecular weight thiol found in Firmicutes that is analogous to glutathione, which is absent in these bacteria. Bacillithiol transferases catalyze the transfer of bacillithiol to various substrates.

Protein palmitoylation regulates osteoblast differentiation through BMP-induced osterix expression. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Osteoporosis is one of the most common diseases and can be treated by either anti-resorption drugs, anabolic drugs, or both. To search for anabolic drug targets for osteoporosis therapy, it is crucial to understand the biology of bone forming cells ...
