Identification
Name:4-(Glutamylamino) butanoate
Description4-(Glutamylamino) butanoate is a polyamine that is an intermediate in putrescine degradation . Polyamines (the most common of which are putrescine , spermidine , and spermine ), a group of positively charged small molecules present in virtually all living organisms, have been implicated in many biological processes, including binding to nucleic acids, stabilizing membranes, and stimulating several enzymes. Although polyamines are clearly necessary for optimal cell growth, a surplus of polyamines can cause inhibition of growth and protein synthesis, and thus a balance is desired between the production and breakdown of polyamines. In putrescine degradation , 4-(Glutamylamino) butanoate is a substrate for gamma-glutamyl-gamma-aminobutyrate hydrolase (puuD) and can be generated from the hydrolysis of gamma-glutamyl-gamma-aminobutyraldehyde.

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in oxidoreductase activity
Specific function:
Involved in the breakdown of putrescine. Was previously shown to have a weak but measurable ALDH enzyme activity that prefers NADP over NAD as coenzyme
Gene Name:
puuC
Uniprot ID:
P23883
Molecular weight:
53418
Reactions
Gamma-glutamyl-gamma-aminobutyraldehyde + NAD(+) + H(2)O = gamma-glutamyl-gamma-aminobutyrate + NADH.
An aldehyde + NAD(P)(+) + H(2)O = a carboxylate + NAD(P)H.
General function:
Involved in glutamate decarboxylase activity
Specific function:
Converts glutamate to gamma-aminobutyrate (GABA), consuming one intracellular proton in the reaction. The gad system helps to maintain a near-neutral intracellular pH when cells are exposed to extremely acidic conditions. The ability to survive transit through the acidic conditions of the stomach is essential for successful colonization of the mammalian host by commensal and pathogenic bacteria
