Identification
BMDB Protein ID BMDBP01242
Secondary Accession Numbers None
Name Gamma-glutamylcyclotransferase
Synonyms Not Available
Gene Name GGCT
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in acyltransferase activity
Specific Function Catalyzes the formation of 5-oxoproline from gamma-glutamyl dipeptides and may play a significant role in glutathione homeostasis. Induces release of cytochrome c from mitochondria with resultant induction of apoptosis.
