General description

2-Hydroxy-5-nitrobenzyl alcohol (HNB) can be synthesized from dimethyl(2-hydroxyl-5-nitrobenzyl)sulfonium bromide. Its crystal structure has been analyzed. The interaction of HNB with glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) at tryptophan residues has been investigated.

2-Hydroxy-5-nitrobenzyl alcohol (HNB) was prepared from dimethyl(2-hydroxyl-5-nitrobenzyl)sulfonium bromide (HNBB). HNB binds to glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) 1-2 and 2-2 with moderate affinity at a site separate from 1-anilino-8-naphthalenesulfonate (ANS). Intrinsic fluorescence due to Trp-21 is strongly quenched by HNB binding but
