An inducible, cytosolic glutathione S-transferase (GST) was purified from Streptomyces griseus. GST isoenzymes with pI values of 6.8 and 7.9 used standard GST substrates including 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene. GST had subunit and native M(r)s of 24 and 48, respectively, and the N-terminal sequence SMILXYWDIIRGLPAH.

Title: Association between polymorphic glutathione S-transferase (GST) genes, their combination and interaction with tobacco smoke and prostate cancer risk: A case-control study Authors: Nicole A Lavender ([email protected]) Marnita L Benford ([email protected]) Tiva T VanCleave ([email protected])

In the course of studying [PSI(+)], a yeast prion, we found inadvertently that Escherichia coli strain BL21 overproducing a fusion protein, in which the prion-domain of Sup35 was connected to the C terminus of glutathione S-transferase, grew normally to the stationary phase and rapidly decreased in colony-forming ability thereafter. Evidence indicated that protein polymers consisting mainly of ...

The cytochrome P450, epoxide hydrolase, and glutathione S-transferase enzyme families play an important part in the metabolism of many carcinogens and anti-cancer drugs. The expression of two forms of cytochrome P450 (P450 1A and P450 3A), epoxide hydrolase and of the alpha, mu, and pi forms of glutathione S-transferase in normal colon, colonic adenomas, and adenocarcinoma of the colon were stu...

Reaction of [Pd(1R,2R-diaminocyclohexane)Cl(2)] with the oxidised form of the tripeptide glutathione ([gamma]-l-glutamyl-l-cysteinyl-glycine) in aqueous solution leads to reductive cleavage of the disulfide bond.

Bromochloromethane (BCM) is a volatile compound and a by-product of disinfection of water by chlorination. Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models are used in risk assessment applications. An updated PBPK model for BCM is generated and applied to hypotheses testing calibrated using vapor uptake data. The two different metabolic hypotheses examined are (1) a two-pathway model using b...

A straightforward method for the rapid detection of the presence of glutathione S-transferase (GST)-tagged proteins from sample solutions using glutathione (GSH)-bound gold nanoclusters (Au@GSH NCs) with luminescence properties as the detection probes by simple observation with the naked eye was proposed in this study.
