The Role of Glutathione and Glutathione S‐Transferases in Mercapturic Acid Biosynthesis

“…GSH is required as a coenzyme "References: (1) Rall and Lehninger (1952); (2) Mills (1957); (3) Binkley and Nakamura (1948); (4) Connell and Hanes (1956); (5) Narahara and Williams (1959); (6) Racker (1955); (7) Chang and Wilken (1966); (8) Crook and Hopkins (1938); (9) Racker (1951); (10) Edwards and Knox (1956); (11) Strittmatter and Ball (1955) ; (12) Rose and Racker (1962) ; (13) Spencer and Knox (1962); (14) Suzuki and Silver (1966). 111) are detoxicating enzymes since by catalyzing conjugation with glutathione and rendering nonpolar foreign molecules more hydrophilic, they initiate the first stage of the mercapturic acid pathway for the elimination of foreign compounds from the body.…”
