GLO2/Glyoxalase II Protein, Human (GST)
GLO2, or Glyoxalase II Protein, serves as a thiolesterase, playing a crucial role in catalyzing the hydrolysis of S-D-lactoyl-glutathione. This activity generates glutathione and D-lactic acid, emphasizing GLO2's significance in cellular metabolism. The enzyme contributes to regulating glutathione levels and the conversion of substrates within cellular pathways. GLO2/Glyoxalase II Protein, Human (GST) is the recombinant human-derived GLO2/Glyoxalase II protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-GST labeled tag.
- Species: Human
- Source: E. coli
-
Storage:Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

GLO2, also known as Glyoxalase II, functions as a thiolesterase, playing a pivotal role in catalyzing the hydrolysis of S-D-lactoyl-glutathione. This enzymatic activity results in the formation of glutathione and D-lactic acid. The specific role of GLO2 in this process underscores its importance in the cellular metabolism of S-D-lactoyl-glutathione, contributing to the regulation of glutathione levels and the conversion of substrates involved in cellular pathways.
