4.3.2.7 glutathione-specific gamma-glutamylcyclotransferaseIUBMB Comments
The enzyme, found in bacteria, fungi and animals, is specific for glutathione (cf. EC 4.3.2.9, gamma-glutamylcyclotransferase). The enzyme acts as a cyclotransferase, cleaving the amide bond via transamidation using the alpha-amine of the L-glutamyl residue, releasing it as the cyclic 5-oxo-L-proline.

physiological function
physiological function
-
expression of RipAY causes growth inhibition of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and a decrease of 70% of the intracellular glutathione level. Addition of exogenous glutathione does not restore RipAY-dependent growth inhibition. Inoculation of Ralstonia solanacearum into eggplant leaves causes a decrease in intracellular glutathione. In vitro, RipAY protein purified from a bacterial expression system does not exhibit any GGCT activity, whereas robust GGCT activity is seen upon its interaction with eukaryotic thioredoxins
physiological function
-
gamma-glutamyl cyclotransferase acts specifically to degrade glutathione but not other gamma-glutamyl peptides. The overexpression leads to glutathione depletion and enhanced apoptosis in yeast
