About GGT7

Cytogenetic location: 20q11.22 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 20:34,844,720-34,872,856 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 244 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 10.3), thyroid (RPKM 7.4) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene is a member of a gene family that encodes enzymes involved in both the metabolism of glutathione and in the transpeptidation of Amino acids. Changes in the activity of gamma-glutamyltransferase may signal preneoplastic or toxic conditions in the liver or kidney. The protein encoded by this gene consists of a heavy and a LIGHT chain, and it can interact with CT120, a plasma membrane-associated protein that is possibly involved in lung carcinogenesis.
