Plant Glutathione Transferases [PDF]
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 ...

Forager bees (Apis mellifera) highly express immune and detoxification genes in tissues associated with nectar processing. [PDF]
Pollinators, including honey bees, routinely encounter potentially harmful microorganisms and phytochemicals during foraging. However, the mechanisms by which honey bees manage these potential threats are poorly understood.

GLUTATHIONE S-TRANSFERASES IN HELMINTHS
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.

Ester biosynthesis in kiwifruit: from genes to enzymes to pathways [PDF]
The distinctive flavours of different kiwifruit (Actinidia) genotypes are determined by a unique combination of volatile compounds. We are using a genomics approach to identify genes responsible for the production of esters in kiwifruit.

Binding of bile acids by glutathione S-transferases from rat liver.
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.

Directed enzyme evolution: climbing fitness peaks one amino acid at a time [PDF]
Directed evolution can generate a remarkable range of new enzyme properties. Alternate substrate specificities and reaction selectivities are readily accessible in enzymes from families that are naturally functionally diverse.

Arabidopsis thaliana dehydroascorbate reductase 2 : conformational flexibility during catalysis [PDF]
Dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR) catalyzes the glutathione (GSH)-dependent reduction of dehydroascorbate and plays a direct role in regenerating ascorbic acid, an essential plant antioxidant vital for defense against oxidative stress.
