Glutathione-S-Transferase P1 1, Human, Recombinant, E. coli

Introduction:
Affinity purified, biologically active, full length recombinant GST P1–1. GSTs catalyze the formation of the thioester conjugates between glutathione and reactive xenobiotic compounds and are believed to be important for the cellular response to oxidative stress. Suitable for procarcinogen studies. Higher levels of GST P1–1 are reported in many human tumors, including melanomas. GST P1–1 is widely distributed throughout the body, except for the liver.
