Description

5-L-Glutamyl-taurine, also known as 5-l-glutamyl-taurine or 5-l-glutamyl-taurine, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as glutamine and derivatives. Glutamine and derivatives are compounds containing glutamine or a derivative thereof resulting from reaction of glutamine at the amino group or the carboxy group, or from the replacement of any hydrogen of glycine by a heteroatom. 5-L-Glutamyl-taurine is possibly soluble (in water) and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). 5-L-Glutamyl-taurine exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. 5-L-Glutamyl-taurine can be biosynthesized from taurine; which is catalyzed by the enzyme Gamma-glutamyltransferase 6. In cattle, 5-L-glutamyl-taurine is involved in the metabolic pathway called the taurine and hypotaurine metabolism pathway.
