The present invention relates to a cellular transport system for bringing a sulfonic acid construct which carries a cargo into a cell and releasing the cargo in the cell's cytoplasm, the cellular transport system comprising: (i) a sulfonate transporter located in the cytoplasm membrane of the cell wherein said sulfonate transporter is capable of transporting said sulfonic acid construct across the cytoplasm membrane into the cytoplasm; (ii) a γ-glutamyl transferase (GGT; EC 2.3.2.2) which is modified to be located in the cytoplasm of the cell, wherein said γ-glutamyl transferase is capable of hydrolyzing said sulfonic acid construct so as to release the cargo. Moreover, the present invention relates to the use of a cellular transport system for bringing a sulfonic acid construct which contains a cargo into a cell and releasing the cargo in the cell's cytoplasm. Further, the present invention relates to a γ-glutamyl transferase for hydrolyzing a sulfonic acid construct which contains a cargo.

Novel template-fixed β-hairpin peptidomimetics of the general formula (I) wherein the single elements T or P are α-amino acid residues connected in either direction which, depending on their positions in the chain, are as defined in the description and the claims, and salts thereof, have the property to antagonize the receptor CCR10. They can be used as medicaments to treat or prevent diseases or conditions in the area of dermatological and cutaneous disorders, inflammation, allergic disorders, respiratory diseases, diseases of the gastro-intestinal tract, ophthalmic diseases, haematology and cancer. These β-hairpin peptidomimetics can be manufactured by a process which is based on a mixed solid- and solution phase synthetic strategy.

identified inside the active site of E. coli γ-glutamyltransferase, putatively involved in acceptor substrate binding. Point-mutation of these residues afforded two mutant enzymes with altered catalytic properties. Mutant T413L showed a very promising transpeptidation-to-hydrolysis ratio up to 20 : 1. The two mutants were tested as biocatalysts for the enzymatic synthesis of γ-glutamyl dipeptides with flavor-enhancer

A reagent for assaying γ-glutamyltranspeptidase (γ-GTP) which contains an amino acid dehydrogenase and a substrate specific to γ-glutamyltranspeptidase activity. The reagent can be used to assay the γ-GTP activity directly from the continuous course of reaction without using a standard substance with known activity. The procedure required is simple and easy, and the reagent is capable of determining γ-GTP activity with good accuracy and without affecting by interfering substances, making it satisfactory for routine use in clinical laboratories.
