General annotation (Comments)

Function

Initiates extracellular glutathione (GSH) breakdown, provides cells with a local cysteine supply and contributes to maintain intracelular 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.

Catalytic activity

(5-L-glutamyl)-peptide + an amino acid = peptide + 5-L-glutamyl amino acid.

Pathway

Sulfur metabolism; glutathione metabolism.

Subunit structure

Heterodimer composed of the light and heavy chains. The active site is located in the light chain By similarity.

Subcellular location

Membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Highly expressed in kidney. Detected at lower levels in liver, lung, plexus choroideus and brain capillary endothelial cells.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the gamma-glutamyltransferase family.
