Summary

Glutathione S-Transferases (GSTs) constitute the most important enzymes protecting humans and many other organisms from potentially toxic chemicals, including drugs and carcinogenic chemicals. In Glutathione S-Transferases: Structure, Function and Clinical Implications, the most recent scientific developments in this enzyme system are presented and discussed. The book covers the structure of GSTs, together with their role not only in susceptibility to cancer but also in cancer prevention. It is divided into sections covering enzymology, structure and function of GSTs, control and regulation of GST-expression, GSH conjugation in vivo, and the clinical relevance of GSTs. The book comprises 22 chapters from internationally-known contributors. It will be of value to protein chemists, drug metabolism scientists, toxicologists, epidemiologists and clinicians.
