EC 3.5.1.94

Names

Accepted name:
γ-glutamyl-γ-aminobutyrate hydrolase
Other names:
γ-glutamyl-GABA hydrolase
PuuD
YcjL
4-(γ--glutamylamino)butanoate amidohydrolase
Systematic name:
4-γ-(L-glutamylamino)butanoate amidohydrolase

Reaction

Comments:

Forms part of a novel putrescine-utilizing pathway in Escherichia coli, in which it has been hypothesized that putrescine is first glutamylated to form γ-glutamylputrescine, which is oxidized to 4-(γ-glutamylamino)butanal and then to 4-(γ-glutamylamino)butanoate. The enzyme can also catalyse the reactions of EC 3.5.1.35 (D-glutaminase) and EC 3.5.1.65 (theanine hydrolase).
