Identification
HMDB Protein ID CDBP02309
Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Gamma-glutamyl hydrolase
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. Conjugase
  2. GH
  3. Gamma-Glu-X carboxypeptidase
Gene Name GGH
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in catalytic activity
Specific Function Hydrolyzes the polyglutamate sidechains of pteroylpolyglutamates. Progressively removes gamma-glutamyl residues from pteroylpoly-gamma-glutamate to yield pteroyl-alpha-glutamate (folic acid) and free glutamate. May play an important role in the bioavailability of dietary pteroylpolyglutamates and in the metabolism of pteroylpolyglutamates and antifolates.
