Phytochelatin Synthase in Heavy Metal Detoxification and Xenobiotic Metabolism
<p id="p1">Phytochelatin synthase (PCS) is well-known for its role in heavy metal detoxification in plants, yeasts and non-vertebrate animals. It is a protease-like enzyme that catalyzes glutathione (GSH) to form phytochelatins (PCs), a group of Cys-rich and non-translational polypeptides with a hig...
