Glutathione S-Transferases in Marine Copepods
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 The glutathione S-transferase (GST) is a complex family of phase II detoxification enzymes, known for their ability to catalyze the conjugation of the reduced form of glutathione (GSH) to a wide variety of endogenous and exogenous electrophilic compounds

The multifaceted role of glutathione S-transferases in cancer.
Cancer Letters, 2018 Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are phase II detoxifying enzymes involved in the maintenance of cell integrity, oxidative stress and protection against DNA damage by catalyzing the conjugation of glutathione to a wide variety of electrophilic ...

Glutathione transferases in bacteria [PDF]
The FEBS Journal, 2009 Bacterial glutathione transferases (GSTs) are part of a superfamily of enzymes that play a key role in cellular detoxification. GSTs are widely distributed in prokaryotes and are grouped into several classes. Bacterial GSTs are implicated in a variety of distinct processes such as the biodegradation of xenobiotics, protection against chemical and ...

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.

A reverse chemical ecology approach to explore wood natural durability
Microbial Biotechnology, 2020 Summary The natural durability of wood species, defined as their inherent resistance to wood‐destroying agents, is a complex phenomenon depending on many biotic and abiotic factors. Besides the presence of recalcitrant polymers, the presence of compounds

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.

Terminal nucleotidyl transferases (TENTs) in mammalian RNA metabolism
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2018 In eukaryotes, almost all RNA species are processed at their 3′ ends and most mRNAs are polyadenylated in the nucleus by canonical poly(A) polymerases.
