HSP32

Gene
HSP32
Protein
Probable glutathione-independent glyoxalase HSP32
Organism
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c)
Length
237 amino acids
Function
Catalyzes the conversion of methylglyoxal (MG) to D-lactate in a single glutathione (GSH)-independent step. May play a role in detoxifying endogenously produced glyoxals. Involved in protection against reactive oxygen species (ROS) (By similarity). Important for viability in stationary phase. May negatively regulate TORC1 in response to nutrient limitation (PubMed:24706893).
Similarity
Belongs to the peptidase C56 family. HSP31-like subfamily.
Mass
25.94 kDa
