| Target description: | Glutathione S-transferase (also known as GST) is encoded by the Gst gene in E. coli. Glutathione S transferases are a group of enzymes that are responsible for the detoxification of reactive chemical species through conjugation to reduced glutathione. They are ubiquitously distributed in nature, being found in organisms from microbes to higher mammals. They exist as membrane-bound as well as cytosolic enzymes with distinct catalytic and noncatalytic binding properties. They catalyze the conjugation of reduced glutathione (GSH) with compounds that contain an electrophilic center through the formation of a thioether bond between the sulfur atom of GSH and the substrate. The fundamental basis of their catalytic activity has been attributed to their capacity to lower the pKa of the sulfhydryl group of GSH from 9.0 in aqueous solution to about 6.5 when GSH is bound in the active site. In the case of certain substrates, GST can catalyze both the forward and reverse reactions, which can lead to increased toxicity rather than detoxication. GST has also been used as a tag for recombinant proteins where it can be fused with either the N- or the C-terminal of protein. Proteins produced using the GST fusion system have been used in numerous biological applications. It allows proteins to become more soluble. Based on their biochemical, immunological, and structural properties, the soluble human GSTs are categorized into 4 main classes: alpha, mu, pi, and theta. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
