  • Title: Characterization of a novel microsomal glutathione S-transferase produced by Aspergillus ochraceus TS.
    Author: Datta J, Samanta TB.
    Journal: Mol Cell Biochem; 1992 Dec 02; 118(1):31-8. PubMed ID: 1488053.
    Abstract:
    Purification and characterization of microsomal glutathione S-transferase produced by Aspergillus ochraceus TS are reported. The isozymes are located in microsomes and were active against 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene, ethacrynic acid, 1,2-dichloro-4-nitrobenzene, trans-4-phenyl-3-buten-2-one,p-nitrobenzyl chloride and bromosulphophthalein. They were inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide and bromosulphophthalein. The GST isozymes produced by Aspergillus ochraceus TS are indistinguishable in respect of their molecular mass both in native and denatured state. The subunit of the purified protein had an apparent M(r) of 11 kDa while molecular mass of the native protein is around 56 kDa. The substrate specificity and pI values of the isozymes were different. The GSTs produced by Aspergillus ochraceus TS fairly share functional properties with mammalian cytosolic isozymes.
