GSSeH combines with bGalNAc derivative to form GSSebGalNac
In rat cytosol, 1beta-methylseleno-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (bGalNAc ) derivative combines with glutathioselenol (GSSeH) to form 1beta-glutathionylseleno-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (GSSebGalNac) aka selenosugar A by an unknown mechanism. The actual enzyme or enzymes involved have yet to be identified (Kobayashi et al. 2002).
