Generalized parton distributions at large x are studied in the perturbative QCD approach. As x⃗1 and at finite t, there is no t dependence for the GPDs which means that the active quark is at the center of the transverse space. We also obtain the power behavior Hqπ(x,ξ,t)(1-x)2/(1-ξ2) for the pion, Hq(x,ξ,t)(1-x)3/(1-ξ2)2 and Eq(x,ξ,t)(1-x)5/(1-ξ2)3f(ξ) for the nucleon, where f(ξ) represents the additional dependence on ξ.
