The apparent Km values for β-ME-SG (glutathionylated β-mercaptoethanol) were determined using a HED concentration range of 0.1–1 mM in presence of 2 mM GSH and 100 nM enzyme for GrxC1, 50 nM for GrxC2, 10 nM for GrxC3 and GrxC4. The apparent Km values for DHA were determined using a DHA concentration range of 0.1–1 mM in presence of 2 mM GSH and 2 μM enzyme for GrxC1, 1 μM for GrxC2, 200 nM for GrxC3, and 150 nM for GrxC4. The apparent Km values for GSH were determined using a GSH concentration range of 0.25–5 mM in the presence of 0.7 mM HED and 100 nM enzyme for GrxC1, 50 nM for GrxC2, 10 nM for GrxC3 and GrxC4. The kcat and Km values were calculated by non-linear regression using the Michaelis–Menten equation. Values are the means ± SD of three replicates.
