Plasmodium spp. membrane glutathione S-transferases: detoxification units and drug targets

open access: yesMicrobial Cell, 2014
Membrane glutathione S-transferases from the class of membrane-associated proteins in eicosanoid and glutathione metabolism (MAPEG) form a superfamily of detoxification enzymes that catalyze the conjugation of reduced glutathione (GSH) to a broad ...

GalNAc-Transferases in Cancer

open access: yesBiomedicines
Background/Objectives: The polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (GALNT) family initiates mucin-type O-glycosylation, a post-translational modification that plays a pivotal role in cellular signaling, adhesion, and immune evasion.

Glutathione Transferases [PDF]

open access: yesThe Arabidopsis Book, 2010
The 55 Arabidopsis glutathione transferases (GSTs) are, with one microsomal exception, a monophyletic group of soluble enzymes that can be divided into phi, tau, theta, zeta, lambda, dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR) and TCHQD classes. The populous phi and tau classes are often highly stress inducible and regularly crop up in proteomic and ...

Protein engineering to probe the catalytic mechanism of Alpha-class glutathione S-transferases

open access: yes, 1997
Glutathione S-Transferases (GSTs) are a large family of isoenzymes that catalyse the addition of glutathione to hydrophobic electrophiles. Over-expression of GSTs in tumours leads to resistance to chemotherapy drugs, thus understanding GST biochemistry ...

Glutathione Transferases as Efficient Ketosteroid Isomerases

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
In addition to their well-established role in detoxication, glutathione transferases (GSTs) have other biological functions. We are focusing on the ketosteroid isomerase activity, which appears to contribute to steroid hormone biosynthesis in mammalian ...

Transferases in Polymer Chemistry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Transferases are enzymes that catalyze reactions in which a group is transferred from one compound to another. This makes these enzymes ideal catalysts for polymerization reactions.

Inhibitory effect of metals on animal and plant glutathione transferases.

open access: yesJournal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology, 2020
Glutathione transferases (GSTs) represent a widespread enzyme superfamily in eukaryotes and prokaryotes catalyzing different reactions with endogenous and xenobiotic substrates such as organic pollutants.
