| Comments |
The enzyme, characterized from several trypanosomatids (e.g.?Trypanosoma cruzi) catalyses two subsequent reactions, leading to production of trypanothione from glutathione and spermidine. Some trypanosomatids (e.g. Crithidia species and some?Leishmania?species) also contain an enzyme that only carries out the first reaction (cf. EC?6.3.1.8, glutathionylspermidine synthase). The enzyme is bifunctional, and also catalyses the hydrolysis of glutathionylspermidine and trypanothione (cf. EC?3.5.1.78, glutathionylspermidine amidase). |
