Introduction
Cytosolic and membrane-bound types of GST are encoded by 2 different supergene families. There are 8 classes of the soluble cytoplasmic mammalian GST: alpha, kappa, mu, omega, pi, sigma, theta and zeta. The mu class of enzymes functions in the detoxification of electrophilic compounds, including carcinogens, therapeutic drugs, environmental toxins and products of oxidative stress, by conjugation with glutathione. The genes encoding the mu class of enzymes are arranged in a gene cluster on chromosome 1p13.3 and aare highly polymorphic. These genetic differences can change an individual's resistance to carcinogens and toxins as well as affect the toxicity and efficacy of certain drugs. Null mutations of this class mu gene have been linked with the rise in a number of cancers.
Description
GSTM1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single,
non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 203 amino acids (1-181 a.a) and
having a molecular mass of 23.6kDa.GSTM1 is fused to a 22 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus
& purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
