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.

Catalytic activity

2 glutathione + H(2)O(2) = glutathione disulfide + 2 H(2)O.

Subunit structure

Homotetramer.

Subcellular location

Secreted.

Tissue specificity

Secreted in plasma.

Post-translational modification

The N-terminus is blocked.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family.
