Summary: Enables glutamate binding activity; glutamate decarboxylase activity; and pyridoxal phosphate binding activity. Involved in glutamate decarboxylation to succinate and response to xenobiotic stimulus. Located in several cellular components, including inhibitory synapse; perinuclear region of cytoplasm; and synaptic vesicle membrane. Is anchored component of membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in gestational diabetes; schizophrenia; and type 1 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human GAD2 (glutamate decarboxylase 2).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
