UniProtKB accession:  Q08914

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Catalyzes the conversion of methylglyoxal (MG) to D-lactate in a single glutathione (GSH)-independent step. May play a role in detoxifying endogenously produced glyoxals. Involved in protection against reactive oxygen species (ROS) (By similarity). Important for viability in stationary phase. May negatively regulate TORC1 in response to nutrient limitation (PubMed:24706893).
