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.
For highly specific detection of GAD65 in inhibitory synaptic signaling studies, see our GAD65 Antibody / Synaptic GABA Marker Antibody page featuring clone GAD2/2362 with strong HuProt(TM) microarray specificity validation data.
The stated application concentrations are suggested starting points. Titration of the GAD2 antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
A portion of amino acids 109-138 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for the GAD2 antibody.
Aliquot the GAD2 antibody and store frozen at -20oC or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
