As nouns the difference between glutathione and trypanothione

is that glutathione is a tripeptide formed from glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine, that is active in many biological redox reactions while trypanothione is an unusual form of glutathione containing two molecules of glutathione joined by a spermidine (polyamine) linker, found in parasitic protozoa such as leishmania and trypanosomes.
