General annotation (Comments)

Function

Could play a major role in protecting mammals from the toxicity of ingested lipid hydroperoxides. Essential for embryonic development. Protects from radiation and oxidative damage By similarity.

Catalytic activity

2 glutathione + a lipid hydroperoxide = glutathione disulfide + lipid + 2 H2O.

Subunit structure

Monomer.

Subcellular location

Mitochondrion. Cytoplasm.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative initiation. [Align] [Select]
Isoform Mitochondrial (identifier: P36968-1)
