Glutathione is a tripeptide with a gamma peptide linkage between the amine group of cysteine and the carboxyl group of the glutamate side-chain. It is an antioxidant, preventing damage to important cellular components caused by reactive oxygen species such as free radicals and peroxides.
Glutathione serves as a substrate for glutathione peroxidase, an enzyme that functions to remove hydrogen peroxide. The reduced form of glutathione (GSH) is acted on by glutathione peroxidase to produce the oxidized form of glutathione, GSSG. The mineral selenium is an essential component of glutathione peroxidase. Glutathione peroxidase and other antioxidant enzymes (eg, superoxide dismutases, catalase, and glutathione reductase) function to reduce lipid peroxidation. For a full description of natural antioxidants and their actions, see Maxwell (5).
