Purification and kinetic mechanism of the major glutathione S-transferase from bovine brain.
The major glutathione S-transferase isoenzyme from bovine brain was isolated and purified approx. 500-fold. The enzyme has a pI of 7.39 +/- 0.02 and consists of two non-identical subunits having apparent Mr values of 22,000 and 24,000. The enzyme is uniformly distributed in brain, and kinetic data at pH 6.5 with 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) as substrate suggest a random rapid-equilibrium ...
متن کاملGlutathione Transferase from Bovine Placenta
A method was developed to purify glutathione transferase from bovine placenta by affinity chromatography and fast protein liquid chromatography. The purified enzyme was homogeneous as judged by sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing. The dimeric enzyme is composed of identical subunits with a molecular weight of 23,000; its isoelectric point is 6.9. In contrast to p...
متن کاملGenetic Polymorphism of the Glutathione S-Transferase M1 and Development of Breast Cancer
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are encoded by a superfamily of genes and play a role in the detoxification of potential carcinogens. The human GSTs are divided into four classes: alpha, mu, pi and theta. Previous studies indicated that the absence of the Glutathione S-Transferase M1 (GSTM1) protein correlated with an increased risk of developing some types of cancers. Association between spe...
متن کاملGlutathione S-transferase isoenzymes in rat brain neurons and glia.
The glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) constitute a family of cytosolic isoenzymes and a structurally unrelated microsomal enzyme that is involved in the detoxication of electrophilic xenobiotics. These enzymes also participate in the intracellular binding and transport of a broad range of lipophilic compounds including bilirubin, and hormones such as the glucocorticoids and thyroid hormones. Th...
متن کاملReduction of MTT by glutathione S-transferase.
The reduction of the tetrazolium salt 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) to a blue formazan product is widely used for assaying cell survival and proliferation. The reduction reaction is catalyzed by dehydrogenases localized in the mitochondria of viable cells. As part of an analysis of the ability of glutathione S-transferase (GST) enzymes to protect cells from...
