The cell surface enzyme γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) is expressed by human hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs). HCCs arise from malignant transformation of hepatocytes and are the most common form of primary liver cancer. Identification of tumor-specific, post-translational modifications of GGT may provide

S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) involved in storage and transport of nitric oxide ((•)NO) plays an important role in vascular homeostasis. Breakdown of GSNO can be catalyzed by γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT). We investigated whether vascular GGT influences the vasorelaxant effect of GSNO in isolated
