Product Description

γ-glutamyltranspeptidase (γ-GT) is a key enzyme in γ-glutanyl cycle, which catalyzes the degr

adation of GSH. γ-GT catalyzes the transfer of γ-glutamyl groups from GSH or other 

γ-glutamyl compounds to receptors.  It  can  also  catalyze  the  hydrolysis  of GSH  and  other  

γ-glutamyl  compounds  to  produce glutamate, which plays an important role in the metabolism 

of extracellular glutathione. γ-GT  catalyzes  the  transfer  of γ-glutamyl  in  glutamyl  

p-nitroaniline  to  N-glycylglycine  to  form  p- nitroaniline  with  characteristic  light  absorption

  at  405  nm.  γ-GT  enzyme  activity  was  calculated  by measuring the increase 

rate of light absorption at 405 nm.
