Six GSH transferases with neutral/acidic isoelectric points were purified from the cytosol fraction of rat liver. Four transferases are class Mu enzymes related to the previously characterized GSH transferases 3-3, 4-4 and 6-6, as judged by structural and enzymic properties. Two additional GSH transferases are distinguished by high specific activities with 4-hydroxyalk-2-enals, toxic products of lipid peroxidation. The most abundant of these two enzymes, GSH transferase 8-8, a class Alpha enzyme, has earlier been identified in rat lung and kidney. The amino acid sequence of subunit 8 was determined and showed a typical class Alpha GSH transferase structure including an N-acetylated N-terminal methionine residue.
从大鼠肝脏的胞质溶胶部分纯化出六种具有中性/酸性等电点的谷胱甘肽转移酶。根据结构和酶学特性判断,其中四种转移酶是与先前鉴定的谷胱甘肽转移酶3-3、4-4和6-6相关的Mu类酶。另外两种谷胱甘肽转移酶的特点是对脂质过氧化的有毒产物4-羟基链-2-烯醛具有高比活性。这两种酶中含量最丰富的谷胱甘肽转移酶8-8是一种Alpha类酶,此前已在大鼠肺和肾中鉴定出来。确定了亚基8的氨基酸序列,其显示出典型的Alpha类谷胱甘肽转移酶结构,包括一个N-乙酰化的N端甲硫氨酸残基。
