Abstract excerpt
The role of the hydroxyl group of tyrosine 6 in the catalytic mechanism of isoenzyme 3-3 of rat glutathione S-transferase has been examined by x-ray crystallography and site-specific replacement of the residue with phenylalanine and evaluation of the catalytic properties of the mutant enzyme.
