    Author: Harris J, Coles B, Meyer DJ, Ketterer B.
    Journal: Comp Biochem Physiol B; 1991; 98(4):511-5. PubMed ID: 1868685.
    Abstract:
    1. The major glutathione S-transferase (GST) from the common squid Loligo vulgaris has been purified and shown to be a homodimer of subunit molecular mass 24,000 and pI 6.8. 2. It has high activity towards 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene, p-nitrobenzyl chloride, 4-hydroxynon-2-enal and linoleic acid hydroperoxide, low activity with 1,2-dichloro-4-nitrobenzene and no activity with ethacrynic acid, trans-4-phenyl-3-buten-2-one and 1,2-epoxy-3-(p-nitrophenoxy)propane. 3. The L. vulgaris GST did not cross-react with any of the available polyclonal antibodies raised against mammalian GSTs. 4. Forty amino acids of its N-terminal sequence have been determined. 5. Its activities and primary structure are compared with related proteins from other species.
