Term Name:	glutathione synthase complex
Synonyms:	glutathione synthetase complex
Definition:	A protein complex composed of two or more polypeptide subunits, and which possesses glutathione synthase activity (catalysis of the reaction: L-gamma-glutamyl-L-cysteine + ATP + glycine = ADP + glutathione + 2 H+ + phosphate).
