Description |
gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase 2 |
| Gene Summary |
The gene encodes a gamma-glutamyltransferase (AKA gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, EC 2.3.2.2) that is located in the apoplast of young siliques (within the ovules of the carpel) and is involved in the degradation of glutathione. The encoded enzyme also acts as part of a GSH pumping gamma-glutamyl cycle in this tissue and may also be involved in gamma-glutamyl amino acid formation. |
