GGH

gamma-glutamyl hydrolase

Basic Info

Synonyms
Conjugase, folylpolygammaglutamyl hydrolase, Gamma-Glu-X carboxypeptidase
+ [4]
Introduction
Hydrolyzes the polyglutamate sidechains of pteroylpolyglutamates. Progressively removes gamma-glutamyl residues from pteroylpoly-gamma-glutamate to yield pteroyl-alpha-glutamate (folic acid) and free glutamate (PubMed:11005824, PubMed:8816764). May play an important role in the bioavailability of dietary pteroylpolyglutamates and in the metabolism of pteroylpolyglutamates and antifolates.
