Multiple human liver GSH S-transferases (GST) with overlapping substrate specificities may be essential to their multiple roles in xenobiotics metabolism, drug biotransformation, and protection against peroxidative damage. Human liver GSTs are composed of at least two classes of subunits, Ha(Mr=26,000) and Hb(Mr=27,500). Immunological cross-reactivity and nucleic acid hybridization studies revealed a close relationship between the human Hasubunit and rat Ya, Ycsubunits and their cDNAs. We have determined the nucleotide sequence of the Hasubunit 1 cDNA, pGTH1. The alignments of its coding sequence with the rat Yaand YccDNAs indicate that they are ∼80% identical base-for-base without any deletion or insertion. Regions of sequence homology (>50%) have also been found between pGTH1 and a corn GST cDNA and rat GST cDNAs of the Yband Ypsubunits. Among the 62 highly conserved amino acid residues of the rat GST supergene family, 56 of them are preserved in the Hasubunit 1 coding sequences. Comparison of amino-acid replacement mutations in these coding sequences revealed that the percentage divergence between the rat Yaand Ycgenes is more than that between the Haand Yaor Haand Ycgenes.
