Glutamate decarboxylase 67 (GAD67), encoded by the GAD1 gene, is a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme responsible for conversion of glutamate to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. GAD67 is widely expressed in inhibitory interneurons and plays a central role in GABAergic neurotransmission, neuronal excitability regulation, synaptic inhibition, and neural circuit organization. GAD67 Antibody is useful for investigations involving inhibitory neurotransmitter biology, neuronal differentiation, GABAergic signaling pathways, and neurodevelopment-associated cellular regulation.
GAD67 antibody, also referred to as GAD1 antibody and Glutamate decarboxylase 67 antibody in the literature, recognizes a predominantly cytoplasmic neuronal enzyme encoded on chromosome 2q31. GAD67 localizes mainly within neuronal soma and presynaptic compartments where it supports constitutive GABA synthesis required for inhibitory neurotransmission. Expression of GAD67 is strongly associated with inhibitory interneurons throughout cortical, hippocampal, cerebellar, and subcortical neural networks. Altered GAD67 expression has been associated with epilepsy, schizophrenia, neurodevelopmental disorders, neurodegenerative disease, and tumor-associated neural differentiation pathways.
GAD67 Antibody / GABA Synthesis Enzyme Antibody (clone GAD1/2391) is uniquely positioned for studies involving inhibitory neuronal signaling and GABAergic pathway characterization. This mouse monoclonal antibody demonstrates strong western blot and immunohistochemical detection together with highly selective HuProt(TM) microarray specificity validation against more than 19,000 full-length human proteins. The combined validation profile supports use of clone GAD1/2391 in investigations involving inhibitory interneuron biology, neural differentiation pathways, and neurotransmitter-associated signaling regulation.
Analysis of HuProt(TM) microarrays containing more than 19,000 individually purified full-length human proteins demonstrated highly selective recognition of GAD67/GAD1 by clone GAD1/2391. In HuProt(TM) analysis, the Z-score represents the strength of antibody binding signal relative to the overall array mean, while the S-score reflects target specificity relative to the next highest ranked protein signal. Elevated S-score separation supports preferential target recognition and reduced off-target binding across the tested human proteome. The strong specificity profile of clone GAD1/2391 supports highly selective detection of inhibitory neurotransmitter-associated pathways in complex neural tissues.
GAD67 contributes directly to inhibitory synaptic regulation through sustained GABA production required for neuronal network balance and suppression of excitotoxic signaling. Because GAD67 expression is highly associated with inhibitory neuronal populations, it serves as an important marker for studies involving interneuron organization, cortical inhibitory circuitry, and GABAergic differentiation pathways. GAD67 additionally represents a widely utilized marker in investigations involving neural lineage-associated tumors and neurodevelopment-associated cellular regulation.
This GAD67 Antibody supports research involving GABA synthesis, inhibitory neurotransmitter signaling, interneuron differentiation, neural circuit organization, neurodevelopmental biology, synaptic inhibition pathways, and GABAergic neuronal regulation. Clone GAD1/2391 may be incorporated into western blot, immunohistochemistry, and tissue-based investigations examining inhibitory neural signaling pathways in normal and diseased tissues.
