Description | Entrez Summary: This gene encodes one of several forms of glutamic acid decarboxylase, identified as a major autoantigen in insulin-dependent diabetes. The enzyme encoded is responsible for catalyzing the production of gamma-aminobutyric acid from L-glutamic acid. A pathogenic role for this enzyme has been identified in the human pancreas since it has been identified as an autoantibody and an autoreactive T cell target in insulin-dependent diabetes. This gene may also play a role in the stiff man syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein. UniPort Summary Function: Catalyzes the production of GABA. |
Immunogen | Immunogen: Purified recombinant human GAD2 protein fragments expressed in E Coli. Sensitivity: This antibody detects endogenous levels of GAD2 and does not cross-react with related proteins. Sequence Similarities: Belongs to the group II decarboxylase family. |
