Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) regulates cellular peroxide levels through glutathione oxidation. GPx-mimics based on 4,5-disubstituted fluorene diselenides, their oxides, and ditellurides show catalytic activities consistent with conformational restriction about the dichalcogen bond.
谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶 (GPx) 通过氧化谷胱甘肽来调节细胞内过氧化物水平。基于 4,5-二取代芴二硒化物、其氧化物和二碲化物的 GPx 模拟物表现出与二硫键构象限制一致的催化活性。
