Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * GCLC is a protein with a molecular weight of approximately 125 kDa. * It is expressed in a variety of cell types, including immune cells, hepatocytes, and epithelial cells. * GCLC is a key enzyme in the cellular response to stress and injury. * It is involved in the Keap1-nfe2l2 pathway, a major antioxidant defense mechanism. **Pathways and functions:** * GCLC is involved in the biosynthesis of glutathione from glutamate and cysteine. * It is also involved in the degradation of damaged proteins and organelles. * It plays a role in the regulation of cell death and inflammation. * It is involved in the maintenance of redox balance and cellular homeostasis. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the GCLC gene have been linked to several human diseases, including haggsd, a genetic disorder characterized by the accumulation of abnormal disulfide bonds in skin and blood proteins. * GCLC inhibitors are being investigated as potential therapeutic agents for these diseases. * Dysregulation of GCLC has been linked to various neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. **Conclusion:** The GCLC gene is a critical regulator of cellular health and is involved in various cellular processes, including stress response, antioxidant defense, and metabolism. Mutations in the GCLC gene have significant implications for human health, and GCLC inhibitors are a promising area of research for the treatment of various diseases.
