Enzymatic activity of the four human glutathione S-transferase PI variants towards nitrosourea anticancer drugs
Glutathione S-transferases (GST) are a superfamily of detoxifying enzymes present in most life forms. They catalyse the conjugation of the tripeptide glutathione (GSH) to a wide variety of exogenous and endogenous compounds with electrophilic functional groups to form more soluble and non-toxic pept...
