Biophysicochemical PropertiespH dependence: Optimum pH is 8. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11511179, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17226937};
Catalytic Activity2 glutathione + dehydroascorbate = glutathione disulfide + ascorbate.
Catalytic ActivityMethylarsonate + 2 glutathione = methylarsonite + glutathione disulfide + H(2)O.
Catalytic ActivityRX + glutathione = HX + R-S-glutathione.
Enzyme RegulationMonomethylarsonic acid reductase activity is competitively inhibited by 1-chloro 2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) and by deoxycholate.
FunctionExhibits glutathione-dependent thiol transferase and dehydroascorbate reductase activities. Has S-(phenacyl)glutathione reductase activity. Has also glutathione S-transferase activity. Participates in the biotransformation of inorganic arsenic and reduces monomethylarsonic acid (MMA) and dimethylarsonic acid. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10783391, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11511179, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17226937, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18028863, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21106529}.
