Glutathione disulfide (GSSG, oxidized glutathione) — living evidence map

The Atlas page holds the claims; this is how its evidence evolved.

Summary

Glutathione disulfide (GSSG) is the oxidized form of glutathione; the GSSG/glutathione couple is the most abundant redox couple in a cell and serves as an indicator of its redox environment. · pmid:11368918

Mechanism

The half-cell reduction potential of the GSSG/glutathione couple has been estimated at about -240 mV in proliferating cells, -200 mV in differentiating cells and -170 mV in cells undergoing apoptosis. · pmid:11368918

Identity

PubChem CID 65359: Glutathione Disulfide, C20H32N6O12S2, 612.6 g/mol. · pubchem:65359

CAS registry number 27025-41-8. · pubchem:65359

IUPAC name: (2S)-2-amino-5-[[(2R)-3-[[(2R)-2-[[(4S)-4-amino-4-carboxybutanoyl]amino]-3-(carboxymethylamino)-3-oxopropyl]disulfanyl]-1-(carboxymethylamino)-1-oxopropan-2-yl]amino]-5-oxopentanoic acid. · pubchem:65359

Structure

No structure representation on record. PepJunkie draws only what an authoritative record supplies; for a peptide that is the residue sequence, and none has been curated for Glutathione disulfide (GSSG, oxidized glutathione) yet.


Dose evidence, rung by rung

A studied human dose exists on file. Open the rung: the dose is the paper's, in its context, never PepJunkie's.
