The gamma-glutamyl cycle should be considered not as a mechanism for amino acid transport but rather a generator of extracellular signals, gamma-glutamyl amino acids, that are converted intracellularly to 5-oxoproline, which activates uptake and/or metabolism of amino acids ( - glutamyl amino acids or oxoproline could be signaling molecules to activate the transport of amino acids through membranes
