Phytochelatins are
oligomers of glutathione,
produced by the
enzyme phytochelatin synthase. They are
found in plants, fungi,
nematodes and all groups...
-
system that
reduces poisonous hydrogen peroxide. It is the
precursor of
phytochelatins,
glutathione oligomers that
chelate heavy metals such as cadmium. Glutathione...

transcription and
translation of
phytochelatin,
which are
proteins that can bind and
transport cadmium. Once
bound by
phytochelatin,
cadmium is no

- histidine,
organic diacids such as malate, and
polypeptides such as
phytochelatin are also

phytochelatin—an
oligopeptide whose production is
induced after exposure to metal.
