    Summary
    Enables glutamate-cysteine ligase activity. Involved in glutathione biosynthetic process; response to cadmium ion; and response to hydrogen peroxide. Located in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cystic fibrosis; glutamate-cysteine ligase deficiency; hemolytic anemia; and myocardial infarction. Orthologous to human GCLC (glutamate-cysteine ligase catalytic subunit). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
