Abstract excerpt
The acyl transfer reaction of S-glutathionyl benzoate (GSB) is catalyzed by a rationally designed mutant of human glutathione transferase A1-1, A216H. The catalyzed reaction proceeds via the formation of an acyl intermediate and has been studied in the presence of nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur nucleophiles to determine the selectivity with regards to nucleophile structure. Methanol was previously shown to react...
