Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * Gene name: GSTT2 * Ensembl ID: ENSG00000099984 * Protein: GST2_HUMAN (Glutathione S-transferase theta-2) * Size: 2.1 kb * Location: Chromosome 19p13.3 * Expression: Significantly expressed in glial cell, amacrine cell, retina horizontal cell, retinal bipolar neuron, secondary lens fiber, lens epithelial cell, pigmented epithelial cell, Schwann cell, corneal endothelial cell, and anterior lens cell **Pathways and functions:** * GSTT2 gene is involved in multiple pathways related to glutathione metabolism, including: * Glutathione metabolic process * Glutathione transferase activity * Detoxification of ROS generated during inflammation and cell stress * It helps maintain cellular glutathione levels within a narrow range necessary for proper cellular function. * It plays a role in maintaining redox balance in the body, protecting cells from oxidative stress caused by ROS generated during inflammation, cell death, and aging. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the GSTT2 gene have been linked to several human diseases, including: * Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, a genetic disorder characterized by a lack of a protein that helps digest an enzyme in the liver. * Retinoblastoma, a cancer of the eye. * Certain types of cancer, including lung cancer, breast cancer, and colon cancer. * Liver disease and other metabolic disorders. **Conclusion:** The GSTT2 gene is an essential regulator of glutathione metabolism, playing a crucial role in maintaining cellular health and preventing the accumulation of harmful ROS. Its mutations can lead to various diseases, underscoring its importance in human health.
