Erythrocyte glutathione transferase is a well-known biomarker of environmental pollution. Examination of the extensive scientific literature discovers an atypical and very interesting property of this enzyme which may reveal a chronic exposition to many contaminants but in some cases even an acute and short-term dangerous contamination. This review also underlines the peculiar molecular and kinetic properties of this enzyme which makes it unique in the panorama of enzymes used as biomarker for environmental contamination.

Abstract
Erythrocyte glutathione transferase is a well-known biomarker of environmental pollution. Examination of the extensive scientific literature discovers an atypical and very interesting property of this enzyme which may reveal a chronic exposition to many contaminants but in some cases even an acute and short-term dangerous contamination. This review also underlines the peculiar molecular and kinetic properties of this enzyme which makes it unique in the panorama of enzymes used as biomarker for environmental contamination.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
