A gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase-independent pathway of glutathione catabolism to glutamate via 5-oxoproline in Arabidopsis.
The degradation pathway of glutathione (GSH) in plants is not well understood. In mammals, GSH is predominantly metabolized through the gamma-glutamyl cycle, where GSH is degraded by the sequential reaction of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), gamma-glutamyl cyclotransferase, and 5-oxoprolinase to yield glutamate (Glu) and dipeptides that are subject to peptidase action. In this study, we ex...
متن کاملGlutathione metabolism under the influence of hydroperoxides in the lactating mammary gland of the rat. Effect of glucose and extracellular ATP.
Tert-butyl hydroperoxide decreases GSH and total free glutathione (GSH + 2GSSG) contents of acini from lactating mammary glands. The decrease in total free glutathione can be explained by an increase in mixed disulfide formation and by excretion of GSSG to the extracellular medium, and subsequent degradation catalyzed by gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase. Low concentrations of glucose prevented the...
متن کاملgamma-Glutamyl transpeptidase in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and its role in the vacuolar transport and metabolism of glutathione.
In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the enzyme gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (gamma-GT; EC 2.3.2.2) is a glycoprotein that is bound to the vacuolar membrane. The kinetic parameters of GSH transport into isolated vacuoles were measured using intact vacuoles isolated from the wild-type yeast strain Sigma 1278b, under conditions of gamma-GT synthesis (nitrogen starvation) and repression (growth...

Mammalian erythrocytes normally contain high concentrations of the tripeptide GSH.* The major role of G S H in these cells is t o protect against oxidative damage, the GSH-GSSG coupleactingasaredox bufferingsystem. Sheepexhibit two distinct types of inherited erythrocyte GSH deficiency. One type is associated with a diminished activity of y-glutamyl-cysteine synthetase, the first enzyme of GSH ...
متن کاملPhenylalanine Mustard-resistant Murine
Murine L1210 leukemia cells resistant to the antineoplastic agent L-phenylalanine mustard have a 1.52.0-fold elevation in their cellular GSH and GSSG content as compared to drug-sensitive cells. Cellular uptake of ~-[U-'~C]cystine and its incorporation into GSH of the resistant tumor are correspondingly elevated. Synthesis of y-glutamylcysteine, GSH, and GSSG is elevated 1.5-2.0-fold in cell-f...
