GGCT Antibody Blocking Peptide

The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the formation of 5-oxoproline from gamma-glutamyl dipeptides， the penultimate step in glutathione catabolism， and may play a critical role in glutathione homeostasis. The encoded protein may also play a role in cell proliferation， and the expression of this gene is a potential marker for cancer. Pseudogenes of this gene are located on the long arm of chromosome 5 and the short arm of chromosomes 2 and 20. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.
