A group of enzymes of broad specificity. R may be an aliphatic, aromatic or heterocyclic group; X may be a sulfate, nitrile or halide group. Also catalyses the addition of aliphatic epoxides and arene oxides to glutathione, the reduction of polyol nitrate by glutathione to polyol and nitrile, certain isomerization reactions and disulfide interchange.
The taxonomic range for the selected organisms is: Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus The expected taxonomic range for this enzyme is: Bacteria, Eukaryota, Archaea
