Description
Predicted to have glutamate decarboxylase activity and pyridoxal phosphate binding activity. Involved in gamma-aminobutyric acid biosynthetic process. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in gestational diabetes; schizophrenia; and type 1 diabetes mellitus. Is expressed in central nervous system; eye; and neurons. Orthologous to human GAD2 (glutamate decarboxylase 2).
