NCBI Description
Glutathione is important for a variety of biological functions, including protection of cells from oxidative damage by free radicals, detoxification of xenobiotics, and membrane transport. The protein encoded by this gene functions as a homodimer to catalyze the second step of glutathione biosynthesis, which is the ATP-dependent conversion of gamma-L-glutamyl-L-cysteine to glutathione. Defects in this gene are a cause of glutathione synthetase deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
GSS: Defects in GSS are the cause of glutathione synthetase deficiency (GSS deficiency); also known as 5- oxoprolinuria or pyroglutamic aciduria. It is a severe form characterized by an increased rate of hemolysis and defective function of the central nervous system. Defects in GSS are the cause of glutathione synthetase deficiency of erythrocytes (GLUSYNDE)[MIM:231900]. Glutathione synthetase deficiency of erythrocytes is a mild form causing hemolytic anemia. Belongs to the eukaryotic GSH synthase family.

Product Notes
The Human GSS gss (Catalog #AAA7608183) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA7608183 ELISA Kit recognizes Human GSS. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "GSS (Glutathione synthetase), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
