| Sfgh catalyzes the second step in the detoxification reaction, in which glutathione is restored and the formyl group is released as formate. |
| Ethanol, similarly to most environmental toxins, requires metabolic activation and subsequent detoxification by a series of enzymes. |
| However, the mechanism of detoxification of secondary metabolites in plant cells is less well understood. |
| These enzymes link the detoxification of toxic H 2 O 2 to oxidation of the reductant ascorbate. |
| The proportion of H 2 O 2 detoxification that involves redox turnover of the glutathione pool is difficult to estimate. |
| With this in mind, the inactivation of mycotoxins in the body should parallel aspects of xenobiotic detoxification. |
