gsto-1 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables glutathione dehydrogenase (ascorbate) activity and glutathione transferase activity. Involved in cellular response to extracellular stimulus; obsolete oxidation-reduction process; and response to superoxide. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; Parkinson's disease; and asthma. Is an ortholog of human GSTO1 (glutathione S-transferase omega 1) and GSTO2 (glutathione S-transferase omega 2).
