General description

γ-Glutamyl hydrolase is a lysosomal and secreted glycoprotein that is abundantly expressed in liver and kidney. It may be used as a target for inhibition to enhance the therapeutic effect of antifolates and fluorouracil.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 167-180 of human GGH

Application

Anti-GGH antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blot analysis at a working dilution of 1:500-1:2000.
Yale Center for High Throughput Cell Biology IF-tested antibodies. Each antibody is tested by immunofluorescence against HUVEC cells using the Yale HTCB IF protocol. To learn more about us and Yale Center for High Throughput Cell Biology partnership, visit sigma.com/htcb-if.

Biochem/physiol Actions

GGH (γ-glutamyl hydrolase) encodes an enzyme that hydrolyzes the γ-glutamyl sidechains of antifolate and folate polyglutamates. Removal of γ-glutamyl residues from pteroylpoly-γ-glutamate yields pteroyl-α-glutamate (folic acid) and free glutamate.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide

Glutamyl hydrolase cleaves the poly-gamma-glutamate chain folate and antifolate poly-gamma-glutamates. Its cellular location is lysosomal with large amounts of the enzyme constitutively secreted. The highest levels of glutamyl hydrolase mRNA in humans is found in the liver and kidney. Baculovirus-expressed

A cDNA encoding human gamma-glutamyl hydrolase has been identified by searching an expressed sequence tag data base and using rat gamma-glutamyl hydrolase cDNA as the query sequence. The cDNA encodes a 318-amino acid protein of Mr 35,960. The deduced amino

gamma-Glutamyl hydrolase (GH, EC 3.4.19.9) is a lysosomal and secreted glycoprotein that hydrolyzes the gamma-glutamyl tail of antifolate and folate polyglutamates. Tumor cells that have high levels of GH are inherently resistant to classical antifolates, and further resistance can be
