Product Description
Glutamate Dehydrogenase 1 Human Recombinant
Overview
Glutamate dehydrogenase 1, mitochondrial precursor (GLUD1) is a member of the Glu/Leu/Phe/Val dehydrogenases family. GLUD1 is a mitochondrial glutamate dehydrogenase, which converts L-glutamate into alpha-ketoglutarate. GLUD1 has a pivotal role in nitrogen metabolism in plants and animals. GLUD1 is observed in all organisms and catalyzes the oxidative deamination of 1-glutamate to 2-oxoglutarate. The GLUD1 enzyme has a vital role in regulating amino acid induced insulin secretion. GLUD1 gene mutations cause hyperinsulinism-hyperammonemia syndrome (HHS), which is an inherited condition characterized by high insulin and ammonia levels in the blood. GLUD1 enzyme is allosterically activated by ADP and inhibited by GTP and ATP.
