This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 122 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Biased expression in colon (RPKM 26.8), kidney (RPKM 22.6) and 12 other tissues.

Summary

GGT6 belongs to the gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT; EC 2.3.2.2) gene family. GGT is a membrane-bound extracellular Enzyme that cleaves gamma-glutamyl peptide bonds in glutathione and other Peptides and transfers the gamma-glutamyl moiety to acceptors. GGT is also key to glutathione homeostasis because it provides substrates for glutathione synthesis (Heisterkamp et al., 2008 [PubMed 18357469]).[supplied by OMIM, Oct 2008]
