Opis ogólny

GPX1 (glutathione peroxidase 1) belongs to the four membered family of GPXs, including GPX2, GPX3 and GPX4. It is a selenocysteine-containing protein. GPX1 is the major isoform of GPX enzyme and is ubiquitously present intracellularly.[1]
Note: At the reported pH optimum of 8.8, we have found the activity to be approx. 10 times that at pH 7.0. However, to remain consistent with literature and avoid complications arising from non-enzymatic oxidation of GSH, our unit is defined at pH 7.0.

Zastosowanie

Glutathione peroxidase (GPX) from human erythrocytes has been used for the determination of the ability of peroxides to inactivate GPX in epithelial sheets obtained from cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) or solar keratoses (SK).[1]

Działania biochem./fizjol.

GPX1 (glutathione peroxidase 1) catalyzes the conversion of multiple organic and inorganic peroxides, by utilizing reduced glutathione (GSH) as an electron donor. This enzyme is also responsible for the removal of organic and inorganic peroxides.[1]

Definicja jednostki

One unit will catalyze the oxidation by H2O2 of 1.0 μmole of reduced glutathione to oxidized glutathione per min at pH 7.0 at 25 °C.

Postać fizyczna

Lyophilized powder containing 25% sucrose, 3% dithiothreitol, and sodium phosphate buffer salts

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. Do you have any solution stability information on glutathione peroxidase from erythrocytes?

    1 answer
    1. The following information on the bovine source enzyme (equivalent to Product G6137) probably also applies to the human source enzyme (G4013). According to the literature, there is no appreciable loss after 3 months in the presence of 1 mM dithiothreitol (DTT) if solutions of the enzyme are frozen. There is a significant loss (15-22%) in 1 month when in the presence of 2 mM reduced glutathione (GSH), and if neither DTT nor GSH present, the loss is even greater (60-70% lost in 1 month frozen.1There are also stability concerns with the powdered form of Glutathione Peroxidase; the powder is shipped on dry ice and should be kept frozen. We have found that the powder should be stable at least a year if stored in the freezer below 0°C.In our experience, without DTT or mercaptoethanol present, a solution of Glutathione Peroxidase may lose much of its activity within a day, even on ice. Our general recommendation is to reconstitute in 10 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.0 with at least 1 mM dithiothreitol. The solution should be divided into working aliquots and promptly frozen; it will be stable through one freeze-thaw cycle.1. Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, 358, 251-261 (1974).
