Glutathione reductase
This protein maintains a reducing environment inside cells by reducing glutathione disulfide to glutathione. Glutathione reductase or GSR catalyzes this reaction by attacking glutahione disulfide nucleophilically via the Cys63 residue. The Cys63 nucleophile itself is generated by the nucleophilic attack of
