Abstract excerpt
Mammalian glutamate dehydrogenase is an allosterically regulated enzyme that is central to glutamate metabolism. It contributes to important cellular processes, including Krebs cycle anaplerotic mechanisms, energy production, and ammonia homeostasis. In addition to this housekeeping hGDH1, humans have acquired through duplication an hGDH2 isoenzyme expressed in neural tissues with distinct regulatory properties....
