Background InformationThe glyoxalase system consists of Glyoxalase I (Glx I) and Glyoxalase II (Glx II) which is responsible for detoxifying α-ketoaldehydes such as the potent and cytotoxic methylglyoxal (MG). Glx I converts MG to S-D-lactoyl-glutathione (SLG). SLG is then hydrolyzed to D-lactate and reduced glutathione by Glx II. Glx II desensitizes cells to p53-dependent DNA damage-induced apoptosis. It also plays a role during development and in the pathogenesis of cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Glyoxalase II may also be important in the regulation of spermatogenesis.

PropertiesHuman proteins, cDNA and human recombinants are used in human reactive ELISA kits and to produce anti-human mono and polyclonal antibodies. Modern humans (Homo sapiens, primarily ssp. Homo sapiens sapiens). Depending on the epitopes used human ELISA kits can be cross reactive to many other species. Mainly analyzed are human serum, plasma, urine, saliva, human cell culture supernatants and biological samples.
