Background
Glutathione S-transferase (GST) theta 1 (GSTT1) is amember of a superfamily of proteins that catalyze the conjugationof reduced glutathione to a variety of electrophilic andhydrophobic compounds. Human GSTs can be divided into five mainclasses: alpha, mu, pi, theta, and zeta. The theta class includesGSTT1 and GSTT2. The GSTT1 and GSTT2 share 55% amino acid sequenceidentity and both of them were claimed to have an important role inhuman carcinogenesis. The GSTT1 gene is located approximately 50kbaway from the GSTT2 gene. The GSTT1 and GSTT2 genes have a similarstructure, being composed of five exons with identical exon/intronboundaries.
