Abstract excerpt
The plant glutathione S-transferase BI-GST has been identified as a potent inhibitor of Bax lethality in yeast, a phenotype associated with oxidative stress and disruption of mitochondrial functions. Screening of a tomato two-hybrid library for BI-GST interacting proteins identified five homologous Tau class GSTs, which readily form heterodimers between them and BI-GST. All six LeGSTUs were found to be able to...
