| Sysname |
glutamine:D-glutamyl-peptide 5-glutamyltransferase
|
| Reaction(IUBMB) |
(1) D-glutamine + D-glutamate = ammonia + gamma-D-glutamyl-D-glutamate [RN: R04011 R04012];
(2) L(or D)-glutamine + (gamma-D-glutamyl)n-[peptide] = ammonia + (gamma-D-glutamyl)n+1-[peptide]
|
| Reaction(KEGG) |
|
| Substrate |
D-glutamine [CPD: C00819];
D-glutamate [CPD: C00217];
L-glutamine [CPD: C00064];
(gamma-D-glutamyl)n-[peptide]
|
| Product |
ammonia [CPD: C00014];
gamma-D-glutamyl-D-glutamate;
(gamma-D-glutamyl)n+1-[peptide]
|
| Comment |
The enzyme catalyses two reactions. The first is the transfer of a glutamyl residue from L- or D-glutamine to D-glutamate via a gamma linkage, forming gamma-glutamyl-D-glutamate, and the second is the transfer of additional glutamyl residues to the peptide, extending the polypeptide chain.
