Additional information

• The gene is annotated in KEGG as glutathione peroxidase EC 1.11.1.9. It is marked in Swiss-Prot as “glutathione peroxidase homolog” and in MetaCyc as “glutathione peroxidase”. Several studies suggested that glutathione is probably absent in ''B. subtilis''. [Pubmed|19935659]
