EC 3.5.1.78 Details
EC number
3.5.1.78
Accepted name
glutathionylspermidine amidase
Reaction
glutathionylspermidine + H2O = glutathione + spermidine
Other name(s)
glutathionylspermidine amidohydrolase (spermidine-forming)
Systematic name
γ-L-glutamyl-L-cysteinyl-glycine:spermidine amidase
CAS registry number
171040-71-4
Comment
Spermidine is numbered so that atom N-1 is in the amino group of the aminopropyl part of the molecule. The enzyme from Escherichia coli is bifunctional and also catalyses the glutathionylspermidine synthase (EC 6.3.1.8) reaction, resulting in a net hydrolysis of ATP.
