Structure

What Glutathione is

Origin. The tripeptide gamma-glutamyl-cysteinyl-glycine, present in most cells.

Molecular target. A thiol-bearing tripeptide, cycling between reduced and oxidized disulfide forms.

Grouped by structure

Mitochondrial and cofactor

Peptides encoded in or targeted to the mitochondrion, and the cofactors that pathway runs on.

Compounds on this site are grouped by what the molecule is, not by what anyone intends to do with it. Glutathione sits with 5 other compounds in this group because of its structure and its target, and for no other reason.
