Biotechnological Applications of Bacterial GGTs Bacterial GGTs generate an array of compounds through enzymatic -glutamylation of amino acids (e.g., Cys, Glu, Phe, Leu, Val, Trp, and His) and other related amine compounds [e.g., 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) and ethylamine] exhibiting value-added properties like increased solubility, protease resistance, enhanced flavors, and therapeutic capabilities making such compounds significant in food and pharmaceutical industries
Composed of glutamic acid, cysteine, and glycine, glutathione plays a critical role in maintaining redox balance, supporting detoxification processes, and protecting cells from oxidative stress
Glutathione is encapsulated into liposomes, providing a strong protective barrier against digestive juices and enzymes
How NAC and Glutathione Work Differently Despite their close biochemical relationship, NAC and glutathione take completely different pathways through your body
