Application

γ-Glutamyl donor substrate used in spectrophotometric determination of transglutaminase (TGase) activity. Z-Gln-Gly was used to enzymatically synthesize N-linked neoglycoproteins.

Biochem/physiol Actions

N-Benzyloxycarbonyl-L-Glutaminylglycine (Z-Gln-Gly, Z-QG) is used as a substrate to differentiate and characterize transglutaminase(s) (TGase) that catalyzes the post-translational covalent cross-linking of Gln- and Lys-containing peptides. Z-QG supports glutamyl-level cross-linking applications thruough surface modification.

Microbial transglutaminase (MTG) is a practical tool to enzymatically form isopeptide bonds between peptide or protein substrates. This natural approach to crosslinking the side-chains of reactive glutamine and lysine residues is solidly rooted in food and textile processing. More recently

The Ca2+-dependent deamidation and transamidation activities of transglutaminase 2 (TG2) are important to numerous physiological and pathological processes. Herein, we have examined the steady-state kinetics and 15(V/K) kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) for the TG2-catalyzed deamidation and transamidation of N-Benzyloxycarbonyl-l-Glutaminylglycine (Z-Gln-Gly)

Microbial transglutaminase (MTG) is an enzyme largely used in the food industry, mainly to improve food texture. However, many globular proteins show low susceptibility to the action of this enzyme. High-pressure processing (HPP), being able to change protein conformation, may

Polymer-drug and polymer-protein conjugates are promising candidates for the delivery of therapeutic agents. PEGylation, using poly(ethylene glycol) for the conjugation, is now the gold standard in this field, and some PEGylated proteins have successfully reached the market. Hydroxyethyl starch (HES)

A new synthetic strategy for DNA-enzyme conjugates with a novel architecture was explored using a natural cross-linking catalyst, microbial transglutaminase (MTG). A glutamine-donor substrate peptide of MTG was introduced at the 5-position on the pyrimidine of deoxyuridine triphosphate to prepare
