Application

Ligand useful for affinity chromatography of glutathione-S-transferase and glutathione peroxidase.

Biochem/physiol Actions

S-Hexylglutathione may be used as an affinity chromatography ligand of glutathione-S-transferase and glutathione peroxidase. S-Hexylglutathione is also used as an inhibitor to study the specificity and kinetics of enzymes such as mitochondrial membrane-bound glutathione transferase(s) (mtMGST1).

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs), a major family of detoxifying enzymes, play a pivotal role in insecticide resistance in insects. In the malaria vector Anopheles gambiae, insect-specific epsilon class GSTs are associated with resistance to the organochlorine insecticide DDT [1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis-(p-chlorophenyl)ethane].
