Plant Glutathione Transferases [PDF]
, 2005 Soluble plant glutathione transferases (GSTs) consist of seven distinct classes, six of which have been functionally characterized. The phi and tau class GSTs are specific to plants and the most numerous and abundant of these enzymes. Both have classic conjugating activities toward a diverse range of xenobiotics, including pesticides, where they are ...

Sequence motifs that distinguish ATP(CTP) : tRNA nucleotidyl transferases from eubacterial poly(A) polymerases [PDF]
, 2004 ATP(CTP):tRNA nucleotidyl transferases, tRNA maturing enzymes found in all organisms, and eubacterial poly(A) polymerases, enzymes involved in mRNA degradation, are so similar that until now their biochemical functions could not be distinguished by their

Binding of bile acids by glutathione S-transferases from rat liver.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1990 Binding of bile acids and their sulfates and glucuronides by purified GSH S-transferases from rat liver was studied by 1-anilino-8-naphthalenesulfonate fluorescence inhibition, flow dialysis, and equilibrium dialysis.

Expression of Heterologous OsDHAR Gene Improves Glutathione (GSH)-Dependent Antioxidant System and Maintenance of Cellular Redox Status in Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942. [PDF]
, 2020 An excess of reactive oxygen species (ROS) can cause severe oxidative damage to cellular components in photosynthetic cells. Antioxidant systems, such as the glutathione (GSH) pools, regulate redox status in cells to guard against such damage ...

GLUTATHIONE S-TRANSFERASES IN HELMINTHS
Transactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2015 The process of biotransformation of toxic compounds in living organisms typically comprises two phases. The main complex of phase I is the P-450 cytochrome enzymatic system; in phase II it is glutathione S-transferase enzymes.

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