Glutathione peroxidase [EC 1.11.1.9] activity in the liver supernatant from rats fed a Se-deficient diet for 2 wk was 8% of control when measured with H2O2 but 42% of control when assayed with cumene hydroperoxide. Two peaks of glutathione peroxidase activity were present in the Sephadex G-150 gel filtration chromatogram of rat liver supernatant when 1.5 mM cumene hydroperoxide was used as substrate. Only the 1st peak was detected when 0.25 mM H2O2 was used as substrate. The 1st peak was absent from chromatograms of Se-deficient rat liver supernatants; but the 2nd peak, which eluted at a position corresponding to MW = 39,000, appeared unchanged. The 2nd peak thus represents a 2nd glutathione peroxidase activity which catalyzes the destruction of organic hydroperoxides but has little activity toward H2O2 and which persists in severe Se deficiency.
