FUNCTION	The glycine cleavage system catalyzes the degradation of glycine.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY	Reaction=N(6)-[(R)-S(8)-aminomethyldihydrolipoyl]-L-lysyl-[protein] + (6S)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate = N(6)-[(R)-dihydrolipoyl]-L-lysyl- [protein] + (6R)-5,10-methylene-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + NH4(+); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:16945, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10475, Rhea:RHEA- COMP:10492, ChEBI:CHEBI:15636, ChEBI:CHEBI:28938, ChEBI:CHEBI:57453, ChEBI:CHEBI:83100, ChEBI:CHEBI:83143; EC=2.1.2.10;
SUBUNIT	The glycine cleavage system is composed of four proteins: P, T, L and H.
SIMILARITY	Belongs to the GcvT family.
