A kinetic study of gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT)-mediated S-nitrosoglutathione catabolism

S-Nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) is a nitric oxide (NO) donor compound which has been Postulated to be involved in transport of NO in vivo. It is known that gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) is one of the enzymes involved in the enzyme-mediated decomposition of GSNO, but no kinetics Studies of the reaction GSNO-GGT are reported in literature.
