Core Tip	In this review, we focus on the biochemical features and physiological role of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase and analyze the mechanisms through which gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase affects H. pylori gastric colonization, persistence, immune tolerance and damage to the gastric mucosa.
