Background
Transglutaminases are enzymes that catalyze the crosslinking of proteins by epsilon-gamma glutamyl lysine isopeptide bonds. While the primary structure of transglutaminases is not conserved, they all have the same amino acid sequence at their active sites and their activity is calcium-dependent. The protein encoded by this gene consists of two polypeptide chains activated from a single precursor protein by proteolysis. The encoded protein is involved the later stages of cell envelope formation in the epidermis and hair follicle. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
catalytic activity:Protein glutamine + alkylamine = protein N(5)-alkylglutamine + NH(3).,cofactor:Binds 1 calcium ion per subunit.,function:Catalyzes the cross-linking of proteins and the conjugation of polyamines to proteins. It is responsible for the later stages of cell envelope formation in the epidermis and the hair follicle.,PTM:Activated by proteolytic processing.,similarity:Belongs to the transglutaminase superfamily. Transglutaminase family.,subunit:This enzyme consists of two polypeptide chains, which are synthesized as a precursor form of a single polypeptide.,
