GLUTATHIONE PEROXIDASE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

glutathione peroxidase helps control inflammation. Its most frequent application is in shaving preparations. glutatione peroxidase is an enzyme and a natural anti-oxidant.

Uses

Glutathione peroxidase from bovine erythrocytes was used as a positive control in cloning and characterization of full-length cDNAs encoding two glutathione peroxidases (GpXs) from Globodera rostochiensis. It was used for the determination of glutathione peroxidase activity in human milk.

General Description

Glutathione peroxidase?is an antioxidant enzyme that contains selenium. It is present in the glandular epithelium of human?endometrium.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glutathione peroxidase is an enzyme which reduced lipid hydroperoxides into their corresponding alcohols. It also reduces free hydrogen peroxide in to water. In vivo it is responsible for protecting hemoglobin from oxidative breakdown.
