Finally, the protonated glutamate residue donates a hydrogen to the amine of the -linked peptide, releasing an amino acid with a free amino group (Figure 3) ( FIGURE 3 The ChaC-like family proteins, including CHAC1, preferentially degrade reduced glutathione but can also break down other -glutamyl amino acids ( Although CHAC2 enzymes in Leishmania major were shown to degrade only reduced and not oxidized glutathione, this specificity has yet to be confirmed for CHAC1 ( CHAC2 is both evolutionarily older and structurally distinct from CHAC1

however, these processes require adequate levels of glutathione
