Glutathione functions as a co-enzyme for formaldehyde dehydrogenase, maleylacetoacetate isomerase, glyoxalase, prostaglandin endoperoxidase isomerases, and dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane dehydrochlorinase and similar enzymes. In the glyoxalase reaction, the hemimercaptal formed nonenzymatically by reaction of methylglyoxal and glutathione (GSH) is converted by glyoxalase I to S-lactyl-Glutathione, which is split by glyoxalase II to D-lactate and Glutathione. In the formaldehyde dehydrogenase reaction, S-formyl Glutathione is formed (Glutathione+HCHO+NAD+) and hydrolyzed to formate and Glutathione.
