Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * GSTA4 is a single-pass membrane protein that is expressed in a variety of cell types. * It is a key enzyme in the glutathione conjugation system, which is responsible for the formation of glutathione, a protective molecule that helps to neutralize harmful reactive oxygen species. * GSTA4 is also involved in the regulation of inflammation. * It is a highly conserved protein, with a similar sequence in mammals and humans. **Pathways and functions:** * GSTA4 is involved in a variety of cellular processes, including detoxification, immune responses, and energy production. * In detoxification, GSTA4 helps to convert harmful chemicals into less harmful forms. * In immune responses, GSTA4 helps to protect cells from damage by reactive oxygen species (ROS). * In energy production, GSTA4 is involved in the formation of NADPH, a molecule that is used in the electron transport chain, which is responsible for generating energy for cells. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in GSTA4 have been linked to an increased risk of certain diseases, including cancer, liver disease, and kidney disease. * Therefore, GSTA4 is a potential target for the treatment of these diseases. * GSTA4 inhibitors are being investigated as a treatment for cancer and other diseases that are characterized by oxidative stress. **Additional information:** * GSTA4 is a member of the glutathione S-transferase family of enzymes. * The gene encoding GSTA4 is located on chromosome 15q21. * GSTA4 is a highly regulated protein, with its expression being controlled by a variety of factors, including stress, nutrients, and hormones.
