Protein Variants | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
A140D | naturally occuring mutation, most common missense polymorphism found in each of the populations studied so far, the substitution involves a charge change it does not seem to have a significant effect on enzymatic activity with a range of substrates | Homo sapiens |
A236V | naturally occuring mutation, the substitution occurs in individuals from Chile and Mexico | Homo sapiens |
A85S | a naturally occuring polymorphism in Caucasian population | Homo sapiens |
C130Y | naturally occuring mutation, the substitution is rare and may generate unstable protein | Homo sapiens |
C32Y | naturally occuring mutation at the primary active site residue, the rare C32Y substitution is identified in Europeans and appears to degrade rapidly. This variant does not catalyze the typical thioltransferase and reductase reactions that are a feature of the Omega class GSTs | Homo sapiens |
D43N | naturally occuring mutation, the mutant is expressed at low levels causing GSTT1 deficiency | Homo sapiens |
delE155 | naturally occuring mutation, the polymorphic deletion of E155, from the deletion of AGG from the 5' splice donor site of exon 4, occurs at a low frequency in most populations and is strongly linked to K208 in Europeans and to E208 in Chinese individuals. Although active enzyme can be expressed in Escherichia coli, the delE155 enzyme appears to be unstable in vivo. T47D cells that are hemizygous for the GSTO1delE155 allele are completely deficient in GSTO1-1 activity. Variable protein expression in platelets found evidence that the delE155 enzyme is present in platelets obtained from subjects that are heterozygous for the GSTO1delE155, K208 allele | Homo sapiens |
E208K | naturally occuring mutation, the single E208K substitution alone, created independently of the E155 deletion, does not have a significant impact on activity. Variable protein expression in platelets found evidence that the delE155 enzyme is present in platelets obtained from subjects that are heterozygous for the GSTO1delE155, K208 allele | Homo sapiens |
E210A | naturally occuring polymorphism | Homo sapiens |
G147W | the natural polymorphism occurs in a rare variant in Chinese individual | Homo sapiens |
G147W/V224I | site-directed mutagenesis, the double mutation results in a gain of function with a three fold increase in the specific activity with 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene as a substrate. This increase in activity appears to result from a decrease in the Km GSH and a large increase in the catalytic efficiency of the enzyme | Homo sapiens |
K196N | naturally occuring polymorphism | Homo sapiens |
L158I | naturally occuring mutation, the substitution is rare and may generate unstable protein | Homo sapiens |
additional information | a single naturally occuring SNP causing an I71L substitution causes diminished activity with several substrates including CDNB and 7-chloro-4-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole as a result of an elevation in its Km for GSH, but the specific activity towards DELTA5-androsten-3,17-dione and the Km GSH of the L71 variant are not changed | Homo sapiens |
additional information | at least 66 naturally occuring polymorphisms in the GSTO2 gene with most variations occurring in non-coding regions. Four non-synonymous SNPs are characterized | Homo sapiens |
additional information | four SNPs encoding the substitutions P110S, S112T, K196N and E210A are identified in the coding sequence of GSTA2, these SNPs occur in five haplotypes, but the K196N substitution can represent a real allele or may be a cDNA sequencing error | Homo sapiens |

P110S | naturally occuring polymorphism | Homo sapiens |
S112T | naturally occuring polymorphism, recombinant enzyme containing the S110 allele has elevated activity towards 4-nitrophenylacetate and azathioprene and lower activity with 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene and organic hydroperoxides compared to the wild-type.

Dichloroacetic acid | i.e. DC, used to treat lactic acidosis and has also been proposed as a novel anticancer agent is both a substrate and a mechanism-based inactivator of GSTZ1-1. Treatment with DCA progressively inactivates GSTZ1-1 and increases the elimination half-life of subsequent doses of DCA. recombinant GSTZ1*A protein is relatively resistant to DCA mediated inactivation when compared with the other isoforms | Homo sapiens |

malfunction | a single SNP causing an I71L substitution in African subjects causes diminished activity with several substrates including CDNB and 7-chloro-4-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole as a result of an elevation in its Km for GSH, but the specific activity towards DELTA5-androsten-3,17-dione and the Km GSH of the L71 variant are not changed | Homo sapiens |
