Abstract
The soluble glutathione transferases (GSTs) are a large, conserved family of proteins that use the tripeptide glutathione as a cosubstrate or coenzyme. They are predominantly expressed in the cytosol and have a range of catalytic and non-catalytic functions, including detoxification of herbicides and protection from oxidative stress, and have been implicated in other cellular processes.Keywords
