1 Because gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase is bound to the external surface of cell membranes and thus is readily accessible to plasma amino acids, it appears that conversion of leukotriene C4 to leukotriene D4 under physiological conditions is coupled with the formation of gamma-glutamyl amino acids. Leukotriene C4 inactive glutathione hydrolase 2 Homo sapiens
2 Conversion of leukotriene D4 to leukotriene C4 is effectively catalyzed by gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase in the presence of relatively low concentrations of glutathione. Leukotriene C4 inactive glutathione hydrolase 2 Homo sapiens
