The dependence of phytochelatin synthase (gamma-glutamylcysteine dipeptidyltranspeptidase (PCS), EC ) on heavy metals for activity has invariably been interpreted in terms of direct metal binding to the enzyme. Here we show, through analyses of immunopurified, recombinant PCS1 from Arabidopsis thaliana

Tentacle ball formation (TBF) in Hydra elicited by S-methylglutathione (GSM) was modulated by a number of biologically active peptides. Hydra fed on Artemia, which had been hatched in a common salt solution supplemented with LiCl and ZnCl(2), easily induced TBF

Within minutes, brief treatment with trypsin potentiated tentacle ball formation in Hydra japonica, a new behavioral response to reduced glutathione. With the potentiation of this behavioral response, new glutathione-binding proteins were immediately detected after the trypsin treatment of live Hydra

Mouse liver glutathione S-transferase YfYf (Pi class) reacts with [14C]ethacrynic acid to form a covalent adduct with a stoichiometry of 1 mol per mol of subunit. Proteolytic digestion of the enzyme-[14C]ethacrynic acid adduct with V8 protease produced an 11 kDa

Glutathione-S-transferase T1 (GSTT1-1) is a major isoenzyme for the biotransformation of halomethanes. The enzyme activity is located, among other places, in human liver and erythrocytes and is subject to a genetic polymorphism. Metabolism of the halomethanes via GSTT1-1 yields S-methylglutathione
