Glutathione (GSH) is the tripeptide gamma-glutamyl-cysteinyl-glycine, the most abundant non-protein thiol in mammalian tissues. Supplied in reduced form as a powder for laboratory research use only.
Description
What is glutathione?
Glutathione, in its reduced form (GSH), is the tripeptide gamma-L-glutamyl-L-cysteinyl-glycine (CAS 70-18-8, molecular formula C10H17N3O6S, molecular weight 307.32 g/mol). It is the most abundant non-protein thiol in mammalian tissues.[1]
Research background
Glutathione is one of the most studied molecules in cell biology. It is a key determinant of cellular redox signaling,[1] and it is synthesized from its constituent amino acids by the sequential action of two enzymes, gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase and GSH synthetase.[2]
Format and documentation
Atlas Labs Bio supplies reduced L-glutathione as a white to off-white powder in a 1500 mg vial. Every batch is tested by an independent third-party laboratory, and the certificate of analysis for the batch currently shipping is linked on this page and in the COA Library.
Storage: Store at 2-8°C.
