GenAge entry for GSTP1 (Homo sapiens)

Gene name (HAGRID: 157)

HGNC symbol: GSTP1
Aliases: GSTP; FAEES3; GST3
Common name: glutathione S-transferase pi 1

Potential relevance to the human ageing process

Main reason for selection: Entry selected based on evidence linking the gene product to a pathway or mechanism linked to ageing
Description: GSTP1 is part of the glutathione system involved in oxidative protection [44]. Overexpression of a homologue of GSTP1 in roundworms extended lifespan by about 22% [1548]. There is some evidence linking polymorphisms in the human GSTP1 gene to Parkinson's disease induced by pesticides [750], but GSTP1's role in human ageing remains unknown.
