The GST Family
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are a large multigen family of multifunctional enzymes, which play an important role in detoxification of potentially genotoxic chemicals, by catalyzing the conjugation of glutathione to a large number of hydrophobic and electrophilic compounds, including carcinogens. They also bind to a variety of nonsubstrate ligands. The GSTs are widely distributed in mammalian species and can be grouped into four classes, based on their biochemical, immunological and structural properties: alpha, mu, pi and theta.

GSTs are dimeric, mainly cytosolic, enzymes that have extensive ligand binding properties in addition to their catalytic role in detoxification. A separate microsomal class of GSTs exists which is quite distinct from the cytosolic GSTs, and is designated as "membrane-associated proteins in eicosanoid and glutathione metabolism" (MAPEG). The N-terminal region tends to be better conserved within classes as it includes an important part of the active site.GSTs are believed to play a role in cancer prevention, as the electrophilic compounds that are conjugated to glutathione could otherwise react with and modify cellular components such as DNA, thereby initiating carcinogenesis. On the other hand, GSTs might detoxify chemotherapeutic drugs in cancer cells, thus contributing to drug resistance.
In summary, GSTs are a group of enzymes which are centrally involved in drug metabolism and detoxification. Because of their role in detoxification, they have been implicated in drug sensitivity and resistance. They may also influence mutagenesis and carcinogenesis and thus, increased GST activity may become a useful cancer marker.
Since many GST genes are polymorphic, there has been considerable interest in determining whether particular allelic variants are also associated with an increase of risk for certain diseases.

Glutathione S-transferase-Pi
The GST-Pi class (phase II detoxification enzymes) is the most abundant of the human glutathione S-transferases family, a major group of detoxification enzymes and widely distributed in the human body.
In normal human tissues, the enzymes protect cells against reactions with glutathione and reactive oxygen species by reducing organic hydroperoxides via gluthathione peroxidase activity.
The role of GST-Pi in tumor growth and progression is less well known. It is reported to be variably expressed in breast cancer and is associated with estrogen receptor levels expressed by the tumor. Down-regulation of GST-Pi activity in a study done on a T cell line appears to favor apoptosis and inhibition of GST-Pi function induces apoptosis in rat hepatoma cells.
The importance in cancer research is clear, as GST-Pi has been implicated in protection against apoptosis and also suggested to have a role in jun kinase inhibition.
The majority of human tumor cell lines express significant amounts of class pi GST, which is why it is being investigated as a potential marker for various types of cancer. GST-Pi is thought to be associated with increased resistance to anticancer drugs. GST-Pi expression is under investigation as a prognostic indicator for resistance to chemotherapy and a marker of treatment resistance.

DNA polymerase activity is essential for replication, repair, recombination and mutagenesis. DNA polymerases can often bypass DNA lesions that block DNA replication, thereby allowing the replication of damaged DNA. One such DNA polymerase is the distributive enzyme DNA Pol i, which is encoded by the POLI gene. POLI is located on human chromosome 18q21.2, a region often implicated in the etiology of many human cancers. At thymine templates, DNA Pol i is highly error-prone when replicating undamaged DNA in that it favors the misincorporation of guanine over the correct nucleotide, adenosine. DNA Pol i also promotes the replication of damaged DNA by misincorporating deoxynucleotides opposite DNA lesions. DNA Pol i acts sequentially with DNA Pol Ω, which is essential for damage-induced mutagenesis, to complete the DNA lesion bypass. Therefore, replication involving DNA Pol i is likely to be highly mutagenic.

The minichromosome maintenance protein 3 (MCM3) is one of the MCM proteins essential for the initiation of DNA replication. The protein encoded by this gene is a MCM3 binding protein. It was reported to have phosphorylation-dependent DNA-primase activity, which was up-regulated in antigen immunization induced germinal center. This protein was demonstrated to be an acetyltransferase that acetylates MCM3 and plays a role in DNA replication. The mutagenesis of a nuclear localization signal of MCM3 affects the binding of this protein with MCM3, suggesting that this protein may also facilitate MCM3 nuclear localization.
