Application

May be used at 5-10 mM to elute glutathione S-transferase (GST) from glutathione agarose.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Endogenous antioxidant that plays a major role in reducing reactive oxygen species formed during cellular metabolism and the respiratory burst. Glutathione-S-transferase catalyzes the formation of glutathione thioethers with xenobiotics, leukotrienes, and other molecules that have an electrophilic center. Glutathione also forms disulfide bonds with cysteine residues in proteins. Via these mechanisms, it can have the paradoxical effect of reducing the efficacy of anti-cancer agents.

  4. What is the best way to make and store solutions of Product G6529, L-Glutathione reduced?

    Reduced glutathione is soluble in water. However, aqueous solutions readily oxidize in air to oxidized glutathione, GSSG.  Therefore, it is probably best to make fresh solutions for use. Half-lives of reduced glutathione in solution at various pHs and temperatures have been reported. The half-life of reduced glutathione is increased in the presence of a chelating agent. For supporting references, please consult the product information sheet (under Documents, above).
