Protein
Deaminated glutathione amidase
Organism
Bos taurus
Length
328 amino acids
Function
Catalyzes the hydrolysis of the amide bond in N-(4-oxoglutarate)-L-cysteinylglycine (deaminated glutathione), a metabolite repair reaction to dispose of the harmful deaminated glutathione. Plays a role in cell growth and apoptosis. Has tumor suppressor properties that enhances the apoptotic responsiveness in cancer cells. It is also a negative regulator of primary T-cells.
Similarity
Belongs to the carbon-nitrogen hydrolase superfamily. NIT1/NIT2 family.

Length

Function
Catalyzes the hydrolysis of the amide bond in N-(4-oxoglutarate)-L-cysteinylglycine (deaminated glutathione), a metabolite repair reaction to dispose of the harmful deaminated glutathione. Plays a role in cell growth and apoptosis: loss of expression promotes cell growth, resistance to DNA damage stress and increased incidence to NMBA-induced tumors. Has tumor suppressor properties that enhances the apoptotic responsiveness in cancer cells; this effect is additive to the tumor suppressor activity of FHIT. It is also a negative regulator of primary T-cells.

Function
Hydrolyzes deaminated glutathione (dGSH, 2-oxoglutaramate) to alpha-ketoglutarate (alpha-KG) and cysteinylglycine (specific activity 6.50 umol/min/mg), has less activity against alpha-ketoglutaramate (a-KGM, specific activity 0.20 umol/min/mg), very little activity on glutathione and none on L-glutamine.
