NCBI Protein Information
glutathione synthetase 2
NCBI Summary
Encodes a protein with similarity to glutathione synthetases, which catalyzes one of the early steps in glutathione biosynthesis. Two transcripts have been detected; the longer transcript is less abundant and the protein is localized to the chloroplast. The smaller transcript, in which the transit peptide is truncated, is localized to the cytosol.
