GGT5
Cleaves the gamma-glutamyl peptide bond of glutathione conjugates, but maybe not glutathione itself. Converts leukotriene C4 (LTC4) to leukotriene D4 (LTD4). Belongs to the gamma-glutamyltransferase family. 3 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
