5-Lipoxygenase activating protein (FLAP), leukotriene-C 4 (LTC 4) synthase, and
microsomal glutathione S-transferase II (microsomal GST-II) are all members of a common
gene family that may also include microsomal GST-I. The present work describes the
identification and characterization of a novel member of this family termed microsomal
glutathione S-transferase III (microsomal GST-III). The open reading frame encodes a 16.5-
kDa protein with a calculated pI of 10.2. Microsomal GST-III has 36, 27, 22, and 20% amino …
