metabolism the glyoxalase system is composed of glyoxalase I, glyoxalase II, and glutathione as cofactor Mus musculus

physiological function the enzyme is part of the glyoxylate system, whose function is to detoxify reactive metabolites, which mainly accumulate during hyperglycaemic metabolism, major substrate is methylglyoxal. The mean glyoxalase I activity of atherosclerotic tissue from aortic and coronary artery samples is significantly reduced compared with healthy tissue derived from the same vessel, indicating a role for glyoxalase I in atherogenesis, the enzyme plays a role in inflammatory response, hypertension, and diabetic microvascular complications, overview Mus musculus
