Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 2686
Gene name Gamma-glutamyltransferase 7
Gene symbol GGT7
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
D20S101GGT4GGTL3GGTL5
Chromosome 20
Chromosome location 20q11.22
Summary This gene is a member of a gene family that encodes enzymes involved in both the metabolism of glutathione and in the transpeptidation of amino acids. Changes in the activity of gamma-glutamyltransferase may signal preneoplastic or toxic conditions in the
