UniProtKB description: Catalyzes the reduction of hydroperoxides in a glutathione-dependent manner thus regulating cellular redox homeostasis (PubMed:8428933, PubMed:36608588). Can reduce small soluble hydroperoxides such as H2O2, cumene hydroperoxide and tert-butyl hydroperoxide, as well as several fatty acid-derived hydroperoxides (PubMed:8428933, PubMed:36608588). Cannot reduce phosphatidycholine hydroperoxide (PubMed:8428933).
