Brugia Malayi: Depletion of Glutathione by Buthionine Sulfoximine
Glutathione is an intracellular reducing agent. It is synthesized by a two-step reaction catalyzed by ?-glutamylcysteine synthetase (?GCS) and glutathione synthetase. ?GCS, which is the rate limiting enzyme in the synthesis of glutathione, is inhibited specifically by buthionine sulfoximine (BSO).
