General annotation (Comments)

Function

Protects cells and enzymes from oxidative damage, by catalyzing the reduction of hydrogen peroxide, lipid peroxides and organic hydroperoxide, by glutathione. May constitute a glutathione peroxidase-like protective system against peroxide damage in sperm membrane lipids.

Catalytic activity

2 glutathione + H2O2 = glutathione disulfide + 2 H2O.

Subcellular location

Secreted.

Tissue specificity

Epididymis.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family.
