The immunogen is a synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human GLO1
Alternative Names:
GLYI, GLOD1, HEL-S-74
The enzyme encoded by this gene is responsible for the catalysis and formation of S-lactoyl-glutathione from methylglyoxal condensation and reduced glutatione. Glyoxalase I is linked to HLA and is localized to 6p21.3-p21.1, between HLA and the centromere.
