Description | Specificity: GAD2 antibody detects endogenous levels of total GAD2. Description: The enzyme glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) is responsible for the synthesis of the essential neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) from L-glutamic acid (1). GAD1 (GAD67) and GAD2 (GAD65) are expressed in nervous and endocrine systems (2) and are thought to be involved in synaptic transmission (3) and insulin secretion (4), respectively. Autoantibodies against GAD2 may serve as markers for type I diabetes (5). Many individuals suffering from an adult onset disorder known as Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS) also express autoantibodies to GAD2 (6).Function: Catalyzes the production of GABA.Subunit Structure: Homodimer.Post-translational Modification |
Immunogen | Immunogen: A synthesized peptide derived from human GAD2 Subcellular Location: Cytoplasm; Cytosol. Associated to cytoplasmic vesicles. In neurons, cytosolic leaflet of golgi membranes and presynaptic clusters. |
