Post Translational Modifications | Cleaved by autocatalysis into a large and a small subunit. Glycosylated. |
Function | Cleaves the gamma-glutamyl peptide bond of glutathione and glutathione-S-conjugate. Converts leukotriene C4 (LTC4), a glutathione-S-conjugate, to leukotriene D4 (LTD4). Does not cleaves gamma-glutamyl compounds such as gamma-glutamyl leucine. May also catalyze a transpeptidation reaction in addition to the hydrolysis reaction, transferring the gamma-glutamyl moiety to an acceptor amino acid to form a new gamma-glutamyl compound. Acts as a negative regulator of geranylgeranyl glutathione bioactivity by cleaving off its gamma-glutamyl group, playing a role in adaptive immune responses. |
