From Proteopedia
Crystal structure of the Y10F mutant of the gluathione s-transferase from schistosoma haematobium
Function
[GST28_SCHBO] Conjugation of reduced glutathione to a wide number of exogenous and endogenous hydrophobic electrophiles. GST isoenzymes appear to play a central role in the parasite detoxification system. Other functions are also suspected including a role in increasing the solubility of haematin in the parasite gut.
