Abstract excerpt
Glutathione synthetase is an enzyme that belongs to the glutathione synthetase ATP-binding domain-like superfamily. It catalyzes the second step in the biosynthesis of glutathione from gamma-glutamylcysteine and glycine in an ATP-dependent manner. Glutathione synthetase has been purified and sequenced from a variety of biological sources; still, its exact mechanism is not fully understood. A variety of structural...
