Mechanism of Action

Mechanism of Action
Redox Buffering System

Glutathione functions as a reducing agent, cycling between reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG) forms to maintain redox balance in experimental systems.

Thiol Group Reactivity

The cysteine residue provides a reactive thiol (-SH) group, enabling participation in electron transfer and conjugation reactions.

Enzymatic Substrate Role

Glutathione acts as a substrate or cofactor in multiple enzymatic processes, supporting studies of enzyme kinetics and biochemical pathways.

Molecular Stability & Protection Models

In research settings, glutathione is used to examine molecular stability and protection against oxidative changes in controlled environments.
