2.3.2.14 |
Accepted name: |
D-alanine γ-glutamyltransferase |
Reaction: |
L-glutamine + D-alanine = NH3 + γ-L-glutamyl-D-alanine |
Systematic name: |
L-glutamine:D-alanine γ-glutamyltransferase |
Comments: |
D-Phenylalanine and D-2-aminobutyrate can also act as acceptors, but more slowly. The enzyme also catalyses some of the reactions of EC 2.3.2.2 (γ-glutamyltransferase). |
