'''Glutaminyl cyclase''' (QC) catalyzes the conversion of glutaminyl-peptide to 5-oxoprolyl-peptide and ammonia. Thus QC catalyzes the cyclization of an N-terminal glutamyl residue<ref>PMID:3597387</ref>.

The biological assembly of Human Glutaminyl cyclase is <scene name='59/596314/Cv/2'>homohexamer</scene>. QC is considered as a marker of thyroid tumors. QC acts on the generation of N-terminal pyroglutamyl groups of peptide hormones and amyloid-related plaque-forming peptides. The latter contributes to Alzheimer disease. Alzheimer patients show increased expression of QC<ref>PMID:23207485</ref> and QC inhibitors reduces the disease pathology and symptoms.
