Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - AHCY is an enzyme of the glutathione (GSH) family. - It catalyzes the transfer of a hydrogen atom from AHC to various substrates, including glutathione, cysteine, and methionine. - It is involved in the detoxification of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. **Pathways and functions:** - AHCY is involved in the detoxification of ROS generated during oxidative stress. - It forms a complex with glutathione and helps to regulate its concentration. - It also participates in the synthesis of selenocysteine, a precursor for glutathione. - It is involved in the synthesis of carnitine, a molecule that acts as an antioxidant. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in AHCY have been linked to several human diseases, including hemolytic anemia, hyperthyroidism, and nephropathies. - AHCY inhibitors are being investigated as potential therapeutic agents for these diseases. **Additional information:** - AHCY is a highly conserved enzyme with homologs in other species. - It is a target for cancer immunotherapy due to its involvement in cell proliferation and survival. - It is a promising target for the development of novel therapeutic strategies for various diseases.
