Inhibition by active site directed covalent modification of human glyoxalase i

The glyoxalase pathway is responsible for conversion of cytotoxic methylglyoxal (MG) to d-lactate. MG toxicity arises from its ability to form advanced glycation end products (AGEs) on proteins, lipids and DNA. Studies have shown that inhibitors of glyoxa
