1. Cadmium-induced oxidative stress and antioxidative enzyme response in water hyacinth and salvinia
The reactive oxygen species generation, lipid peroxidation and antioxidative enzyme response of water hyacinth and salvinia to Cd were evaluated. Cadmium was absorbed/accumulated mainly in the roots, but significant amounts also translocated to the leaves. No Cd effect on dry weight was detected, although toxicity symptoms were visible. Superoxide and H2O2 c

2. Proteção cruzada contra a infestação de Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus em bovinos vacinados com a glutationa-s-transferase recombinante de Haemaphysalis longicornis
Os carrapatos Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus e Haemaphysalis longicornis são ectoparasitas hematófagos que infestam bovinos. O uso de vacinas anticarrapato tem mostrado ser uma estratégia alternativa promissora para o controle desses parasitos. As glutationa-S-transferases (GSTs) pertencem a uma família de enzimas multifuncionais presentes em organi

3. Polymorphisms in the glutathione S-transferase theta and mu genes and susceptibility to myeloid leukemia in Brazilian patients
The null genotype for glutathione S-transferase (GST, EC 2.5.1.18) gene polymorphisms is considered a risk factor for leukemia in different populations. In this work we investigated the GSTT1 and GSTM1 polymorphisms using multiplex PCR in 53 patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), 23 with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) and 304 apparently healthy co

4. Trans-activation of glutathione transferase P gene during chemical hepatocarcinogenesis of the rat.
Glutathione transferase P (GST-P; glutathione transferase, EC 2.5.1.18) is known to be specifically expressed at high levels in precancerous lesions and in hepatocellular carcinomas from a very early phase of chemically induced hepatocarcinogenesis in the rat. The almost invariable occurrence of this phenotype in these lesions strongly suggests a mechanism b

5. Isolation of a cDNA clone and localization of human glutathione S-transferase 2 genes to chromosome band 6p12.
The glutathione S-transferases (GST) (glutathione transferase; EC 2.5.1.18) are a family of enzymes responsible for the metabolism of a broad range of xenobiotics and carcinogens. A cDNA clone containing the entire amino acid coding sequence of a human GST-2 subunit has been isolated using a lambda gt11 expression library. The complete nucleotide sequence an

6. parB: an auxin-regulated gene encoding glutathione S-transferase.
We have isolated an auxin-regulated cDNA, parB, from the early stage of cultured tobacco mesophyll protoplasts. The expression of parB was observed during transition from G0 to the S phase of tobacco mesophyll protoplasts cultured in vitro. The predicted amino acid sequence of parB cDNA has 213 amino acid residues with a relative molecular weight of 23,965.

7. Expression of recombinant glutathione S-transferase pi, Ya, or Yb1 confers resistance to alkylating agents.
Increased levels of glutathione S-transferase (GST; RX:glutathione R-transferase; EC 2.5.1.18) mRNA, protein, and activity in tumor biopsy samples and in drug-resistant cultured cells are associated with resistance to anticancer drugs. We report that each of three full-length cloned GST cDNAs, that for pi (acidic), Ya (basic), and Yb1 (neutral), can confer d

8. Detoxication of base propenals and other alpha, beta-unsaturated aldehyde products of radical reactions and lipid peroxidation by human glutathione transferases.
Radiation and chemical reactions that give rise to free radicals cause the formation of highly cytotoxic base propenals, degradation products of DNA. Human glutathione transferases (GSTs; RX:glutathione R-transferase, EC 2.5.1.18) of classes Alpha, Mu, and Pi were shown to promote the conjugation of glutathione with base propenals and related alkenes. GST P1

9. 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid and Related Chlorinated Compounds Inhibit Two Auxin-Regulated Type-III Tobacco Glutathione S-Transferases.
Two auxin-inducible glutathione S-transferase (GST, EC 2.5.1.18) isozymes from tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum, White Burley) were partially characterized. GST1-1 and GST2-1 are members of a recently identified new type of plant GST isozymes that we will here refer to as type III. Both enzymes were active, with 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene as a substrate, when exp

10. Photoaffinity labeling of Arabidopsis thaliana plasma membrane vesicles by 5-azido-[7-3H]indole-3-acetic acid: identification of a glutathione S-transferase.
We used 5-azido-[7-3H]indole-3-acetic acid (5-azido-[7-3H]IAA), a photoaffinity analogue of the plant hormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), to search for auxin-binding proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana membranes. We identified an auxin-binding protein with a molecular mass of 24 kDa (Atpm24) in microsomes as well as in plasma membrane vesicles. Atpm24 was solub
