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 |

“Family living can go on existing. Very many are
remembering this thing are remembering that family
living living can go on existing. Very many are quite
certain that family living can go on existing. Very
many are remembering that they are quite certain that
family living can go on existing.”

“For splendor, there must somewhere be rigid economy. That the head of the house may go brave, the members must be plainly clad, and the town must save that the State may spend.”
