GGT6
Function
Hydrolyzes and transfers gamma-glutamyl moieties from glutathione and other gamma-glutamyl compounds to acceptors.
Pathway
Sulfur metabolism; glutathione metabolism.
Post-translational modifications
Cleaved by autocatalysis into a large and a small subunit and the autocatalytic cleavage is essential to the functional activation of the enzyme.
Sequence Similarities
Belongs to the gamma-glutamyltransferase family.
Cellular localization
- Membrane
- Single-pass type II membrane protein
Alternative names
