General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution the enzyme belongs to the soluble plant GST superfamily of dimeric enzymes, isozymes classes, overview. Dehydroascorbate reductase and tetrachlorohydroquinone dehalogenase-like proteins also belong to the GST superfamily Arabidopsis thaliana
malfunction isozymes AtGSTs F11, F12, F14 and U14, in which the catalytic serine is replaced by a non-proton abstracting residue, show abolished transferase activity Arabidopsis thaliana
metabolism GST reaction products as metabolic intermediates, e.g. delivering the sullfur in the compounds, possible role for glutathione and GSTs in sulfur incorporation, detailed overview Arabidopsis thaliana
additional information where GSTs are involved in conjugating acceptors with GSH, there is an absolute requirement for the conserved serine residue within the active site, as it promotes the formation of the thiolate anion of GSH. In some family members this serine is replaced with a cysteine, e.g. promoting disulfide exchange reactions in the GSTL Arabidopsis thaliana
physiological function GSTs functioning in the transport of secondary metabolites, e.g. of the electrophilic oxylipins. Pi class GSTs have assumed such roles in modulating the activity of Jun NH2-terminal kinase through protein-protein interactions. Tau class protein AtGSTU20 is a binding partner of the far-red insensitive 219 protein, such that alterations in its expression give rise to an altered growth phenotype under continuous far-red light. AtGSTF12, in which the catalytic serine is replaced by a non-proton abstracting residue resulting in abolished transferase activity, is necessary for correct anthocyanin pigment formation in developing Arabidopsis seeds, although their function is not related to GSH conjugation. Sometimes, following GST action, S-glutathionylated xenobiotics are imported into the vacuole by ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter proteins. In the GST family members where the catalytic serine is replace with a cysteine, the GSTs show the ability to co-ordinately bind hydrophobic ligands in close proximity to the reactive thiol of GSH Arabidopsis thaliana
