MeSH definition : An enzyme, sometimes called GGT, with a key role in the synthesis and degradation
of GLUTATHIONE; (GSH, a tripeptide that protects cells from many toxins). It catalyzes
the transfer of the gamma-glutamyl moiety to an acceptor amino acid.;
MeSH CAS label : (5-L-Glutamyl)-peptide:amino-acid 5-glutamyltransferase;
MeSH Related Number : 9046-27-9 (CAS RN);
Registry Number MeSH : EC 2.3.2.2;
MeSH annotation : do not confuse with PROTEIN-GLUTAMINE GAMMA-GLUTAMYLTRANSFERASES or GLUTAMINYL-PEPTIDE
GAMMA-GLUTAMYLTRANSFERASES see TRANSGLUTAMINASES which crosslinks proteins nor with
GAMMA-GLUTAMYLCYCLOTRANSFERASE;
