DESCRIPTION

Also known as MGST2_HUMAN, MGST2, GST2. Catalyzes several different glutathione-dependent reactions (PubMed:8703034, PubMed:9278457, PubMed:23409838, PubMed:26656251, PubMed:26066610). Catalyzes the glutathione-dependent reduction of lipid hydroperoxides, such as 5-HPETE (PubMed:9278457, PubMed:23409838). Has glutathione transferase activity, toward xenobiotic electrophiles, such as 1-chloro-2, 4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) (PubMed:23409838, PubMed:8703034). Catalyzes also the conjugation of leukotriene A4 with reduced glutathione to form leukotriene C4 (LTC4) (PubMed:23409838, PubMed:26656251). Involved in oxidative DNA damage induced by ER stress and anticancer agents by activating LTC4 biosynthetic machinery in nonimmune cells (PubMed:26656251). Homotrimer.
