Anti-GST3/GST pi/GSTP1 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro647 Conjugated

Glutathione S-transferases pi, also known as GST3, present in all tissues and cells, with the exception of red cells, in which only erythrocyte GST (GSTe) is observed. The GST-pi gene has 7 exons and 6 introns contained within approximately 2.8 kilobases. The GST-pi gene is mapped to chromosome 11. Placental glutathione-S-transferase-pi mRNA is abundantly expressed in human skin. GSTP does not contribute in vivo to the formation of glutathione conjugates of acetaminophen but plays a novel and unexpected role in the toxicity of this compound.

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of human GST3/GST pi, different from the related rat and mouse sequences by two amino acids.
