GGCT

SYNONYMS
Gamma-Glutamylcyclotransferase, CRF21, C7orf24, MGC3077, Cytochrome c-releasing factor 21, GCTG, Ggc, Chromosome 7 open reading frame 24, FLJ11717, EC 2.3.2.4.

INTRODUCTION
GGCT is a member of the family of transferases, specifically the aminoacyltransferases. GGCT protein catalyzes the formation of 5-oxoproline from gamma-glutamyl dipeptides and takes an important part in glutathione homeostasis. GGCT induces release of cytochrome c from mitochondria with resultant induction of apoptosis.

DESCRIPTION
GGCT produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 208 amino acids (1-188a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 23.2kDa.
GGCT is fused to a 20 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
