Target Details for GAD65

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

Alternative Name: GAD2

Background:

Background: Glutamate decarboxylase 2, also known as GAD65, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the GAD2 gene. 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.

Gene Full Name: glutamate decarboxylase 2

Sequence Similarities: Belongs to the group II decarboxylase family.

Molecular Weight: 65 kDa

Gene ID: 2572
