Anti-GCS/GCLC (GCS heavy chain, Gamma-ECS, Gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase)

GCLC, Glutamate--cysteine ligase catalytic subunit, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the GCLC gene.Glutamate-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. The gene encoding the catalytic subunit encodes a protein of 367 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 72.773 kDa and maps to chromosome 6p12.1. Deficiency of gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase in human is associated with enzymopathic hemolytic anemia.
