Glutathione S-transferase (GST) is major cytosolic detoxification enzymes involved in many pathological and physiological processes. In the present study, two classes of GSTs (VpGST-1 and VpGST-2) were cloned from Venerupis philippinarum haemocytes by cDNA library and RACE approaches. Sequence alignments and phylogenetic analysis together supported that they belonged to a new member of sigma and pi classes GSTs protein family, respectively.
