Figure 1 Transglutaminase (TG)-catalyzed reactions. R: Monoamines, polyamines. Examples of TG-catalyzed reactions: A: Acyl transfer between the γ-carboxamide group of a protein/polypeptide glutaminyl residue and the epsilon-amino group of a protein/polypeptide lysyl residue; B: Attachment of a polyamine to the carboxamide group of a glutaminyl residue; C: Deamidation of the γ-carboxamide group of a protein/polypeptide glutaminyl residue.
