This enzyme has a molecular mass of about 70 kDa and exhibits high expression in the liver and red blood cells. It maintains the necessary cellular levels of glutathione a major antioxidant that protects cells from oxidative stress.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nGSS is responsible for the final step in glutathione biosynthesis. Acting independently GSS operates without forming a larger enzyme complex. Its enzymatic activity ensures adequate production of glutathione which regulates cellular redox homeostasis and detoxification processes. The availability of glutathione is critical for cellular respiration and immunity molecules essential for a well-functioning organism.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe activity of GSS integrates into the gamma-glutamyl cycle and the detoxification pathway. It partners indirectly with enzymes like gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase which precedes GSS in the glutathione biosynthesis pathway. This relationship positions GSS as an important element in sustaining normal cellular detoxification processes ensuring the neutralization of reactive oxygen species and maintaining the balance of free radicals.\u003cbr\u003e\nDefects in GSS activity correlate with glutathione synthetase deficiency an autosomal recessive disorder that results in increased oxidative damage and metabolic acidosis. Symptoms range from hemolytic anemia to neurological complications due to impairments in oxidative stress management. The disorder links to proteins involved in antioxidant processes highlighting the importance of GSS in maintaining proper cellular function and disease prevention.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845080731817,"sku":"ab266342","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab266342","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
