The crystal structure of glutamate-bound human gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase 1

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 24047895

Disease

[GGT1_HUMAN] Gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase deficiency. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Function

[GGT1_HUMAN] Initiates extracellular glutathione (GSH) breakdown, provides cells with a local cysteine supply and contributes to maintain intracellular GSH level. It is part of the cell antioxidant defense mechanism. Catalyzes the transfer of the glutamyl moiety of glutathione to amino acids and dipeptide acceptors. Alternatively, glutathione can be hydrolyzed to give Cys-Gly and gamma glutamate. Isoform 3 seems to be inactive.[1] [2]
