2-Propylthiouracil does not replace glutathione for the glutathione transferases.
2-Propylthiouracil has been reported as replacing glutathione as a substrate for the glutathione transferases of rat liver. This observation has been examined with several homogeneous glutathione transferases that were prepared from human and rat liver by different methods in three laboratories. No evidence was obtained for 2-propylthiouracil as a substrate for glutathione transferase in the se...
متن کاملClass-Pi of Glutathione S-Transferases
Class-Pi of glutathione s-transferases (GST-Pi) is the specific form of GSTs that are known to participate particularly in the mechanisms of resistance to drugs and carcinogens. This class of the enzyme is referred to as class-P or class-Pi or class π. The accepted terminology in this review article is class-Pi. In this article following a brief description of identified molecular forms of GSTs...
متن کاملGlutathione S-transferases Null Genotype in Acute Myeloid Leukaemia
Background: The glutathione S-transferase (GST) family of metabolising enzymes plays an important role in the detoxification of mutagens and carcinogens. The expression of many of these cancer susceptibility enzymes is genetically polymorphic. An increased frequency of GST-null genotypes has been associated with several malignancies. Objective: To investigate the rate of GSTT1 and GSTM1 null ge...
متن کاملBinding and glutathione conjugation of porphyrinogens by plant glutathione transferases.
Overexpression in Escherichia coli of a tau (U) class glutathione transferase (GST) from maize (Zea mays L.), termed ZmGSTU1, caused a reduction in heme levels and an accumulation of porphyrin precursors. This disruption was highly specific, with the expression of the closely related ZmGSTU2 or other maize GSTs having little effect. Expression in E. coli of a series of chimeric ZmGSTU1/ZmGSTU2 ...

immunochemically detectable protein, and catalytic activity in different liver samples (Distlerath et al., 1985; Shimada et al., 1986; Umbenhauer et al., 1986). However, rat P-450,,,., , the orthologue of P-450,,, and its activities are well correlated with levels of the 2000 nucleotide mRNA(s) coding for the protein (Churchill et al., 1987); this regulatory model does not seem appropriate for ...
