It is important to understand the role glutatione and its enzime co-factors play in the metabolism within the lens. As seen in the figure below, glutathione is composed of the amino acids cysteine, glutamic acid, and glycine and its synthesis within the lens takes place in two steps. The description of this sections are clearly described in this document….
