Gene information for GCLM (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2730
Official gene symbolGCLM
Full nameglutamate-cysteine ligase, modifier subunit
Aliases,GLCLR,
Gene summaryGlutamate-cysteine ligase, also known as gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase, is the first rate limiting enzyme of glutathione synthesis. The enzyme consists of two subunits, a heavy catalytic subunit and a light regulatory subunit. Gamma glutamylcysteine synthetase deficiency has been implicated in some forms of hemolytic anemia.
