GLUTATHIONE IMPORT TO MITOCHONDRIA As indicated above, despite the fact that the concentration of mGSH is high, GSH is not synthesized de novo in the mitochondrial matrix, as this organelle lacks the enzymes required for GSH synthesis

This reliability is crucial for high-throughput applications in both research and clinical diagnostics, where minimizing sample preparation complexity and processing duration is essential

Both enzymes, GPX7 and GPX8, are located in the endoplasmic reticulum and are necessary enzymes involved in the oxidative folding of endoplasmic reticulum proteins, and GPX8 also plays an important role in the regulation of Ca 2+ in the endoplasmic reticulum
