Coenzyme gamma-F420-2:α-L-glutamate ligase (EC 6.3.2.32, MJ1001, CofF protein, gamma-F420-2:alpha-L-glutamate ligase) is an enzyme with systematic name L-glutamate:coenzyme gamma-F420-2 (ADP-forming).[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

ATP + coenzyme γ-F420-2 + L-glutamate [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] ADP + phosphate + coenzyme α-F420-3

The enzyme caps the γ-glutamyl tail of the hydride carrier coenzyme F420.
