Granzyme Definition
Representing most of the granule content of cytotoxic T cells, Granzymes are serine esterases (endopeptidases) that contain a serine residue at the active site involved in catalysis of internal peptide bonds in a polypeptide or protein. It is not known if these enzymes are required for killing by the cytotoxic T cell.
