Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * GGT1 is a protein of the cytochrome P450 family. * It is expressed in a variety of cells, including retinal cone cells, kidney proximal straight tubule epithelial cells, mural cells, type I pneumocyte, cerebral cortex GABAergic interneuron, forebrain radial glial cell, epithelial cell of proximal tubule, absorptive cell, tuft cell of colon, and BEST4+ intestinal epithelial cell. * GGT1 is a highly conserved protein, with a sequence similarity of over 90% between humans and rodents. **Pathways and functions:** * GGT1 is involved in several important pathways, including the detoxification of aflatoxins, the metabolism of fatty acids, and the regulation of immune responses. * It catalyzes the transfer of a glutamate group from glutamine to various substrates, including aflatoxins, 2-hydroxyglutarate, and 3-nitrotyrosine. * This activity helps to detoxify aflatoxins and protect cells from their toxic effects. * GGT1 is also involved in the metabolism of fatty acids, including the synthesis of eicosanoids, which are important mediators of inflammation and pain. * It also plays a role in the regulation of immune responses, as it is expressed in cells that are involved in immune surveillance. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the GGT1 gene have been linked to an increased risk of liver damage and cancer. * In some cases, GGT1 mutations can also cause aflatoxin-induced liver damage. * As a result, GGT1 is a potential therapeutic target for the prevention and treatment of aflatoxin-induced liver damage. **Additional information:** * The GGT1 gene is located on chromosome 15q21.1. * It is a highly expressed gene, with more than 2,000 copies of GGT1 per cell. * GGT1 is a well-characterized protein that has been extensively studied in both humans and animals.
