General annotation (Comments)

Function

Bifunctional enzyme showing minimal glutathione-conjugating activity with ethacrynic acid and 7-chloro-4-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole and maleylacetoacetate isomerase activity. Has also low glutathione peroxidase activity with T-butyl and cumene hydroperoxides. Is able to catalyze the glutathione dependent oxygenation of dichloroacetic acid to glyoxylic acid. Ref.14

Catalytic activity

4-maleylacetoacetate = 4-fumarylacetoacetate. Ref.14

RX + glutathione = HX + R-S-glutathione. Ref.14

Cofactor

Glutathione. Required for the MAAI activity.

Pathway

Amino-acid degradation; L-phenylalanine degradation; acetoacetate and fumarate from L-phenylalanine: step 5/6.

Subunit structure

Homodimer. Ref.15

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Mostly expressed in liver followed by kidney, skeletal muscle and brain. Also expressed in melanocytes, synovium, placenta, breast and fetal liver and heart.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the GST superfamily. Zeta family.

Contains 1 GST C-terminal domain.

Contains 1 GST N-terminal domain.
