Abstract

γ-Glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT, EC 2.3. 2.2) is a highly glycosylated heterodimeric enzyme linked to the external cellular membrane that catalyzes the hydrolysis of glutathione as well as the transfer of its γ-glutamyl group to amino acids and dipeptides in a transpeptidation reaction. The measurement of both the hydrolytic and transpeptidation activity of this important enzyme is a challenge, since its native substrates are not highly chromogenic. ...
