GGTLC2, Official Symbol GGTLC2provided by HGNC Official Full Name gamma-glutamyltransferase light chain 2provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:18596 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000100121 MIM:612339; AllianceGenome:HGNC:18596 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status VALIDATED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as GGTL4 Summary This gene encodes a protein related to enzymes that cleaves gamma-glutamyl peptide bonds in glutathione and other peptides. Unlike similar proteins, the encoded protein contains only the light chain portion and may not have catalytic activity. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. There are several related family members and related pseudogene for this gene situated in the same region of chromosome 22.
