Glutathione conjugation. Glutathione (GSH) plays a key role in detoxification of certain herbicides (e.g. chloroacetanilides, thiocarbamates and s-triazines) in higher plants via the action of glutathione S-transferase(s) (Breaux, 1986; Pickett and Lu, 1989; Rossini et al, 1996; Gronwald and Plaisance, 1998):lutathione S-transferases (GSTs) may also be involved in conjugating electrophiles generated from the reaction of hydroxyl radicals with lipids and DNA, and thus contribute to oxidative stress resistance (Marrs, 1996).
Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) (EC 1.11.1.9) is the general name of an enzyme family with peroxidase activity whose main biological role is to protect the organism from oxidative damage.owever, glutathione peroxidase 4 knockout mice die during early embryonic development. Some evidence, though, indicates reduced levels of glutathione peroxidase 4 can increase life expectancy in mice.
