QuickView for HAGH (gene)


Gene Symbol:
HAGH Homo sapiens Homo sapiens
Full name:
hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolase
Synonyms:
GLO2, GLX2, GLXII, HAGH1, hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolase, mitochondrial, glx II, glyoxalase II, hydroxyacylglutathione hydroxylase
Genomic Location:
Chr 16: 1799105-1817196
Description:
The enzyme encoded by this gene is classified as a thiolesterase and is responsible for the hydrolysis of S-lactoyl-glutathione to reduced glutathione and D-lactate. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
