Rat liver glutathione S-transferases. A study of the structure of the basic YbYb-containing enzymes.

چکیده

A purification scheme was devised that resulted in the resolution of a number of basic glutathione S-transferases from rat liver, three of which contained two subunits of molecular mass 23500 Da (i.e. Yb monomers). These were identified as transferases D, C and A by their elution positions from CM-cellulose and their specific activities towards a variety of substrates. Hybridization, immunotitration and peptide 'mapping' experiments demonstrated that transferases D, C and A comprise Yb2Yb2, Yb1Yb2 and Yb1Yb1 subunits.

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. In addition, corticosterone and sulfobromophthalein (BSP) binding were studied by equilibrium and flow dialysis. Transferases YaYa and YaYc had comparable affinity for lithocholic...

Glutathione S- transferases and their function as a protein superfamily in plants

Glutathione s transferase (GST) is one of the largest protein and multigene families present in all plant species and other living organisms. For these proteins, which are highly ‌inducible to stress and internal and external stimuli, several functions in plants have been identified, including implication in secondary metabolism, growth and development, detoxification of herbicides, coping with...

Purification and properties of hamster liver ligandins, glutathione S-transferases.

Glutathione S-transferases have been purified to homogeneity from Chinese hamster liver. Three enzyme forms were separated and designated Forms I, II, and III in order of their elution from carboxymethylcellulose columns. The forms exhibit close physical similarities to glutathione S-transferases B (ligandin) of rat liver and epsilon of humam liver. However, enzyme kinetic analysis indicates th...
