Glutamate-tRNA Ligase
|
D005975 |
[An enzyme that activates glutamic acid with its specific transfer RNA. EC 6.1.1.17.

|
Glutamates
|
D005971 |
[Derivatives of GLUTAMIC ACID. Included under this heading are a broad variety of acid forms, salts, esters, and amides that contain the 2-aminopentanedioic acid structure.

|
Glutamic Acid
|
D018698 |
[A non-essential amino acid naturally occurring in the L-form. Glutamic acid is the most common excitatory neurotransmitter in the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.

|
Glutaminase
|
D005972 |
|
|
Glutamine
|
D005973 |
[A non-essential amino acid present abundantly throughout the body and is involved in many metabolic processes. It is synthesized from GLUTAMIC ACID and AMMONIA. It is the principal carrier of NITROGEN in the body and is an important energy source for many cells.

|
Glutamine-Fructose-6-Phosphate Transaminase (Isomerizing)
|
D005945 |
[An enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of fructose-6-phosphate plus GLUTAMINE from GLUTAMATE plus glucosamine-6-phosphate.

|
Glutamyl Aminopeptidase
|
D043384 |
[A ZINC-dependent membrane-bound aminopeptidase that catalyzes the N-terminal peptide cleavage of GLUTAMATE (and to a lesser extent ASPARTATE). The enzyme appears to play a role in the catabolic pathway of the RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN SYSTEM.

|
Glutaral
|
D005976 |
[One of the protein CROSS-LINKING REAGENTS that is used as a disinfectant for sterilization of heat-sensitive equipment and as a laboratory reagent, especially as a fixative.
] |
|
Glutarates
|
D005977 |
[Derivatives of glutaric acid (the structural formula (COO-)2C3H6), including its salts and esters.
] |
|
Glutaredoxins
|
D054477 |
[A family of thioltransferases that contain two active site CYSTEINE residues, which either form a disulfide (oxidized form) or a dithiol (reduced form). They function as an electron carrier in the GLUTHIONE-dependent synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides by RIBONUCLEOTIDE REDUCTASES and may play a role in the deglutathionylation of protein thiols. The oxidized forms of glutaredoxins are directly reduced by the GLUTATHIONE.
] |
|
Glutaryl-CoA Dehydrogenase
|
D050770 |
[A flavoprotein enzyme that is responsible for the catabolism of LYSINE; HYDROXYLYSINE; and TRYPTOPHAN. It catalyzes the oxidation of GLUTARYL-CoA to crotonoyl-CoA using FAD as a cofactor. Glutaric aciduria type I is an inborn error of metabolism due to the deficiency of glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase.
] |
|
Glutathione
|
D005978 |
[A tripeptide with many roles in cells. It conjugates to drugs to make them more soluble for excretion, is a cofactor for some enzymes, is involved in protein disulfide bond rearrangement and reduces peroxides.
] |
|
Glutathione Disulfide
|
D019803 |
[A GLUTATHIONE dimer formed by a disulfide bond between the cysteine sulfhydryl side chains during the course of being oxidized.
] |
|
Glutathione Peroxidase
|
D005979 |
[An enzyme catalyzing the oxidation of 2 moles of GLUTATHIONE in the presence of HYDROGEN PEROXIDE to yield oxidized glutathione and water.
] |
|
Glutathione Reductase
|
D005980 |
[Catalyzes the oxidation of GLUTATHIONE to GLUTATHIONE DISULFIDE in the presence of NADP+. Deficiency in the enzyme is associated with HEMOLYTIC ANEMIA. Formerly listed as EC 1.6.4.2.

|
Glutathione S-Transferase pi
|
D051549 |
