ENZYME entry: EC 2.3.2.1

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/2.3.2.1
Accepted Name
D-glutamyltransferase
Alternative Name(s)
D-glutamyl transpeptidase
Reaction catalysed
  • D-glutamine + D-glutamate = gamma-D-glutamyl-D-glutamate + NH4(+)
  • L(or D)-glutamine + (gamma-D-glutamyl)n-[peptide] = NH3 + (gamma-D-glutamyl)n+1-[peptide]
Comment(s)
The enzyme catalyzes 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.
