Gstm5 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables glutathione transferase activity and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular detoxification of nitrogen compound; glutathione metabolic process; and nitrobenzene metabolic process. Located in cytosol and sperm fibrous sheath. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; cranium; integumental system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease; cystic fibrosis; larynx cancer; multiple sclerosis; and osteosarcoma. Orthologous to human GSTM3 (glutathione S-transferase mu 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Gstm5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
