| 1. | There are at least four different glutathione peroxidase isozymes in animals.
|
| 2. | Their activity is attributed to their mimicry of glutathione peroxidase activity.
|
| 3. | The glutathione peroxidase family consists of 8 known human isoforms.
|
| 4. | However, glutathione peroxidase 4 knockout mice die during early embryonic development.
|
| 5. | GPx-5 belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family.
|
| 6. | It acts as a mimic of glutathione peroxidase and can also react with peroxynitrite.
|
| 7. | Glutathione ( GSH ) participates in leukotriene synthesis and is a cofactor for the enzyme glutathione peroxidase.
|
| 8. | Glutathione peroxidase activity was found to be much lower in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis.
|
| 9. | Glutathione peroxidase, a selenoenzyme, catalyzes the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and organic peroxides by glutathione.
|
| 10. | GPx-3 belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family, which functions in the detoxification of hydrogen peroxide.
