Gamma-glutamyltransferase 5 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the GGT5 gene.Gamma-glutamyltransferase-like activity 1 (GGTLA1) is a member of a gene family with at least 4 members (GGTLA1 GGTLA2 GGTLA3 and GGTLA4). The enzyme encoded by GGTLA1 is related to but distinct from gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT). The GGTLA1 enzyme consists of a heavy and a light chain and is able to hydrolyze the gamma-glutamyl moiety of glutathione.
