Disclosed herein are DNA molecules isolated from
Streptococcus agalactiae
and other bacterial species encoding a bifunctional enzyme with γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase and glutathione synthetase activities. Also disclosed are bifunctional enzymes with γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase and glutathione synthetase activities, uses of bifunctional enzymes with γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase and glutathione synthetase activities, uses of inhibitors of bifunctional enzymes with γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase and glutathione synthetase activities, and uses of DNA molecules encoding bifunctional enzymes encoding enzymes with γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase and glutathione synthetase activities.
