Biological function summary
This enzyme modifies peptide hormones and neuropeptides by enhancing their activity or stability. Glutaminyl cyclase does not usually operate within large protein complexes. However its activity is critical for processing secretory proteins into their mature forms. Modifications by the enzyme often regulate peptide function making it an important player in cellular communication processes.
Pathways
Glutaminyl cyclase plays an important role in the neuroendocrine cascade and protein maturation pathways. This enzyme's activity connects with other proteins like hormone receptors affecting their downstream signaling processes. It also shares connections with proteins involved in the proteolytic processing pathway ensuring maturation and activation of peptide substrates.

General info
Function
Responsible for the biosynthesis of pyroglutamyl peptides. Has a bias against acidic and tryptophan residues adjacent to the N-terminal glutaminyl residue and a lack of importance of chain length after the second residue. Also catalyzes N-terminal pyroglutamate formation. In vitro, catalyzes pyroglutamate formation of N-terminally truncated form of APP amyloid-beta peptides [Glu-3]-amyloid-beta. May be involved in the N-terminal pyroglutamate formation of several amyloid-related plaque-forming peptides.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the glutaminyl-peptide cyclotransferase family.
