Application

L-Glutamic acid γ-monohydroxamate has been used as a standard to calculate transglutaminase (TGase) activity.

Biochem/physiol Actions

L-Glutamic acid γ-monohydroxamate [L-Glu(gamma)HXM] is used as a vanadium ligand which potentiates vanadiums metabolic activity. L-Glu(gamma)HXM is also used as a substrate for E. coli asparagine synthetase B and as an ATP-dependent irreversible inhibitor of Escherichia coli gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase.

The method for the assay of glutamine synthetase (GlnS) relies on the gamma-glutamyl transferase reaction, i.e. the formation of glutamyl-gamma-hydroxamate from glutamine and hydroxylamine, and the chromatographic separation of the reaction product from the reactants. The method is not only

Incubation of Escherichia coli gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase with L-glutamic acid gamma-monohydroxamate and ATP caused slow but irreversible inhibition of the enzyme, and more than 90% activity was lost in three days. The enzyme was not inactivated when ATP was absent or

The equilibria of copper(II) with (S)-glutamic-gamma-hydroxamic acid (H2L) were investigated in aqueous solution by different techniques: glass electrode potentiometry; calorimetry; VIS and CD spectrophotometry; and ES-MS. An unexpected pentacopper(II) 12-metallacrown-4 [Cu5L4H(-4)](2-) was detected, analogous to those well known formed by
