Gene
yfcF
Protein
Glutathione S-transferase YfcF
Organism
Escherichia coli (strain K12)
Length
214 amino acids
Function
Exhibits glutathione (GSH) S-transferase activity toward 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB); however this activity is as low as 1% of that of GstA. Also displays a GSH-dependent peroxidase activity toward cumene hydroperoxide. Is involved in defense against oxidative stress, probably via its peroxidase activity.
Similarity
Belongs to the GST superfamily.
