Glutathione peroxidase: fact and fiction.

Ciba Foundation symposium - 1 Jan 2000

Flohé L

Abstract excerpt

The present knowledge of glutathione (GSH) peroxidase is briefly reviewed: GSH peroxidase has a molecular weight of about 85,000, consists of four apparently-identical subunits and contains four g atom of selenium/mol. The enzyme-bound selenium can undergo a substrate-induced redox change and is obviously essential for activity. In accordance with the assumption that a selenol group is reversibly oxidized during...
