EC of Gamma-Glutamyl-Transferase
E.C. 2.3.2.2.
GGT Systemic name
(5-Glutamyl) Peptide: Amino Acid-5-Glutamyl-Transferase
GGT is Involved in the transfer of the gamma-glutamyl residue from gamma-glutamyl peptides to -, - and other small peptides
amino acid, H2O
Glutathione is a tripeptide composed of -, -, and -
Glutamate
Cysteine
Glycine
GGT physiology
- Involved in peptide and protein synthesis
- regulation of tissue glutathione levels
- transport of amino acids across cell membrane
GGT highest concentration tissue source
kidney
GGT other tissue sources
- brain
- prostate
- pancreas
- liver
clinical applications of GGT assay; primary sources of plasma GGT
evaluation liver and biliary system disorders
GGT is increased/elevated in
- elevated in all HEPATOBILLIARY DISODERS
- increased in patients receiving ENZYME-INDUCING DRUGS
- increased in CHRONIC ALCOHOLISM/Excessive alcohol consumption
enzyme-inducing drugs that will cause an elevated GGT
warfarin
phenobarbital
phenytoin
GGT
bone disease and biliary obstuction
Normal in BD
increased in BO
ALP
bone disease and biliary obstruction
all increase
Assay used in measuring Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase
Szasz assay
? And ? are located in the canalicular end, both of them are present in hepatobiliary conditions.
GGT and ALP
Substrate used for Szasz assay
Gamma-glutamyl-p-nitroanilide
szasz assay
? Is measured because its formation depends on the GGT
Para-Nitroaniline
yellow chromogenic product with a strong absorbance at 405 to 420 nm
Para-nitroaniline
EC for G6PD
1.1.1.49
G6PD systematic name
D-Glucose-6-Phosphate: NADP+ 1-Oxidoreductase
Catalyzes the oxidation of glucose-6-phosphate to 6-phosphogluconate or 6-phosphogluconolactone
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD)
Lactate Dehydrogenase Coenzyme
Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide NAD+
The conversion of glucose-6-phosphate to 6-phosphogluconate will also produce
NADPH
Diagnostic Significance of G6PD: RBC
- maintain NADPH in reduced form
- require reduced NADPH to reduce glutathione
- reduced glutathione protects hemoglobin (Hgb) from oxidation
Low G6PD may cause
Low NADPH = low reduced glutathione = hemolytic anemia
? must be present for anemia to occur in patients with G6PD
deficiency.
