GST Family Members
Across species, the glutathione S-transferase (GST) enzyme superfamily is subdivided into classes: Alpha, Delta, Kappa, Mu, Omega, Pi, Theta, Zeta, and Microsomal. The following table lists all GST enzymes of each class known to exist in Homo sapiens. The maximum enzyme number for each class found across all species in the UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot database is included, shown in the Max All species column.
| GST Class | Homo sapiens GST Class Members (22) | Max All Species |
|---|---|---|
| Alpha | GSTA1, GSTA2, GSTA3, GSTA4, GSTA5 | GSTA6 |
| Delta | GSTD12 | |
| Kappa | GSTK1 | GSTK2 |
| Mu | GSTM1, GSTM1L (RNAi), GSTM2, GSTM3, GSTM4, GSTM5 | GSTM7 |
| Omega | GSTO1, GSTO2 | GSTO3 |
| Pi | GSTP1 | GSTP2 |
| Theta | GSTT1, GSTT2, GSTT4 | GSTT7 |
| Zeta | GSTZ1 (aka GSTZ1 MAAI-Maleylacetoacetate isomerase) | GSTZ3 |
| Microsomal | MGST1, MGST2, MGST3 | MGST3 |

Famous quotes containing the words family and/or members:
“If you are a genius and unsuccessful, everybody treats you as if you were a genius, but when you come to be successful, when you commence to earn money, when you are really successful, then your family and everybody no longer treats you like a genius, they treat you like a man who has become successful.”
—Pablo Picasso (1881–1973)
“The damned are in the abyss of Hell, as within a woeful city, where they suffer unspeakable torments, in all their senses and members, because as they have employed all their senses and their members in sinning, so shall they suffer in each of them the punishment due to sin.”
—St. Francis De Sales (1567–1622)
