IPR037013

Source: InterPro

Description

IPR037013 is a Glutathione synthase, substrate-binding domain superfamily.

<p>This superfamily represents the substrate-binding domain of glutathione synthetase ([ec:6.3.2.3]) (GSS), a homodimeric enzyme that catalyses the conversion of gamma-L-glutamyl-L-cysteine and glycine to phosphate and glutathione in the presence of ATP. This is the second step in glutathione biosynthesis, the first step being catalysed by gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase [[cite:PUB00035960]]. In humans, defects in GSS are inherited in an autosomal recessive way and are the cause of severe metabolic acidosis, 5-oxoprolinuria, and increased rate of haemolysis and defective function of the central nervous system. The substrate-binding domain has a 3-layer α/β/α structure [[cite:PUB00019656]].</p>
