Abstract
S-(p-azidophenacyl)-glutathione, l, is a linear competitive inhibitor at pH 7.40 of beef liver glyoxalase II with Ki = 7.96 × 10−4 M. On irradiation at 340 nm it covalently inhibits glyoxalase II to a level of 42 ± 5% inhibition. This photoaffinity labelling is prevented by the presence of a glyoxalase II competitive inhibitor (the hemimercaptal of glutathione and methylglyoxal). A crude preparation of sheep liver glutathione S-transferases is also irreversibly inactivated (86% ± 5% inhibition) by irradiation at 320 nm in the presence of l.
