Gene: MGST3 (microsomal glutathione S-transferase 3) Homo sapiens

Symbol:

MGST3

Name:

microsomal glutathione S-transferase 3

Description:

This gene encodes a member of the MAPEG (Membrane Associated Proteins in Eicosanoid and Glutathione metabolism) protein family. Members of this family are involved in the production of leukotrienes and prostaglandin E, important mediators of inflammation. This gene encodes an enzyme which catalyzes the conjugation of leukotriene A4 and reduced glutathione to produce leukotriene C4. This enzyme also demonstrates glutathione-dependent peroxidase activity towards lipid hydroperoxides.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

Type:

protein-coding

RefSeq Status:

REVIEWED
