It consists of three amino acidsglutamine, glycine, and cysteineand its needed to help cells recover from harm caused by free radicals, toxins, and oxidative stress
The commercial manufacturing of the vitamin is done through bacterial fermentation
Given the above, employing bioinformatics approaches, efforts were made in this study (a) to identify potential GPX and APX genes/proteins from 18 different plant species, (b) to analyze their exon/intron organization, (c) to provide detailed information about their physico-chemical properties, (d) to identify conserved motif signatures of GPX and APX, (e) to construct their phylogenetic trees and 3D models, (f) to generate protein-protein interaction networks, and finally (g) to analyze GPX and APX gene expression profiles
