General description

4-Nitrobenzyl chloride acts as substrate for glutathione S-transferase(GST) in determination of GST in Chinese fetal liver. It undergoes reduction by NADPH to yield 4-nitrotoluene.

Application

4-Nitrobenzyl chloride was used to prepare unsymmetrically N,N′-bis(substituted) 4,13-diaza-18-crown-6-ether derivatives.

Ser(11) in rat glutathione transferase T2-2 is important for stabilization of the reactive enzyme-bound glutathione thiolate in the reaction with 1-menaphthyl sulfate. The S11A mutation increased the pK(a) value for the pH dependence of the rate constant for pre-steady-state product

Subcellular fractions were isolated from Chinese fetal liver at 4-8 months of age for the determination of glutathione S-transferase (GST). Using 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) as substrate, GST activity was found to be 66 +/- 34 nmol/(min.mg protein), mainly in the cytosol.

The benzyl halides benzyl bromide and 4-nitrobenzyl chloride are reduced anaerobically by NADPH and rat liver microsomes to yield toluene and 4-nitrotoluene, respectively. These reductions and cytochrome P-450-dependent since they are inhibited by CO and metyrapone, and are increased after

Glutathione S-transferase (GST) with activity towards CDNB as a substrate from human intrauterine conceptual tissues (HICT) at 6-10 weeks of gestation was purified approximately 200-fold by GSH coupled Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography. The preparations of affinity purified HICT-GST were used
