Summary

Two peaks of glutathione peroxidase activity were present in the Sephadex G-150 gel filtration chromatogram of rat liver supernatant when 1.5 mM cumene hydroperoxide was used as substrate, and the second peak represents a second glutathienase activity which catalyzes the destruction of organic hydroperoxides but has little activity toward H 2 O 2 and which persists in severe selenium deficiency.
