GenAge entry for GSTA4 (Homo sapiens)

Gene name (HAGRID: 156)

HGNC symbol
GSTA4 
Aliases
 
Common name
glutathione S-transferase alpha 4 

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

GSTA4 is part of the glutathione system involved in oxidative protection [44]. Expression of GSTA4 increases in the aged rat cerebral cortex [746]. There is no causal evidence, however, linking GSTA4 to ageing in humans or in model organisms.
