Abstract excerpt
The GPX1, GPX2, and GPX3 genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been reported previously to encode glutathione peroxidases (GPxs). We re-examined the sequence alignments of these proteins with GPxs from higher eukaryotes. Sequence identities, particularly with phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidases (PHGPxs), were enhanced markedly by introduction to the yeast sequences of gaps that are characteristic...
