Abstract excerpt
GSTs (glutathione S-transferases; E.C.2.5.1.18) are a supergene family of dimeric multifunctional enzymes that have a major role in detoxification pathways. Using a GST from the mosquito Anopheles dirus (adGSTD4-4), we have characterized the enzymatic and physical properties of Leu-6, Thr-31, Leu-33, Ala-35, Glu-37, Lys-40 and Glu-42. These residues generate two motifs located in the N-terminal domain (domain I)...
