GLO1, Human

(GLYI, GLOD1, GLO1, Glyoxalase-1, Lactoylglutathione lyase, Methylglyoxalase, Aldoketomutase, Ketone-aldehyde mutase, Glyoxalase I, S-D-lactoylglutathione methylglyoxal lyase, Glx I.)

GLO1 is involved in the catalysis and formation of S-lactoyl-glutathione from methylglyoxal condensation and reduced glutatione. GLO1 is linked to HLA and is localized to 6p21.3-p21.1, between HLA and the centromere. GLO1 enzyme is ubundantly expressed and present in numerous tumor cell lines, in which its concentration is often upregulated ubiquitisly. GLO1 is a major susceptible gene for autism in an ethnic Chinese population from Taiwan. GLO1 might be involved in the pathophysiology of mood disorders. GLO1 plays a role in the pathophysiology of mood disorders. Overexpression of GLO1 is associated with kidney tumor.
