Function
Catalyzes several different glutathione-dependent reactions. Catalyzes the glutathione-dependent reduction of lipid hydroperoxides, such as 5-HPETE. Has glutathione transferase activity, toward xenobiotic electrophiles, such as 1-chloro-2, 4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB).
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Endoplasmic reticulum membrane (Multi-pass membrane protein); Microsome membrane (Multi-pass membrane protein)
Tissue Specificity: Liver, spleen, skeletal muscle, heart, adrenals, pancreas, prostate, testis, fetal liver, and fetal spleen. Very low expression in lung, brain, placenta and bone marrow. Abundantly expressed in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (at protein level)
