Description
Product Characteristics:
The enzyme encoded by GLO1 is responsible for the catalysis and formation of S-lactoyl-glutathione from methylglyoxal condensation and reduced glutatione. GLO is linked to HLA and is localized to 6p21.3-p21.1, between HLA and the centromere.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm, Nucleus, Secreted, Cell membrane
Synonyms: Aldoketomutase, GLOD1, Glx I, GLYI, Glyoxalase I, Ketone aldehyde mutase, Lactoyl glutathione lyase, S D lactoylglutathione methylglyoxal lyase, LGUL_HUMAN, glo1, glyoxalase domain containing 1, Ketone-aldehyde mutase, Methylglyoxalase.
