Target Details for GAD65

Target: GAD65 (GAD2) (Glutamate Decarboxylase 2 (Pancreatic Islets and Brain, 65kDa) (GAD2))

Alternative Name: GAD2

Background:

Synonyms: Glutamate decarboxylase 2|65 kDa glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD-65)|Glutamate decarboxylase 65 kDa isoform|GAD2|GAD65

Background: 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.
