Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** GLUD2 is a mitochondrial enzyme that belongs to the glutamate dehydrogenase family. It is composed of two subunits, α and β, which are encoded by separate genes. The α-subunit contains the catalytic domain, while the β-subunit is involved in the regulation of the enzyme's activity. GLUD2 is highly expressed in various tissues, including the brain, colon, and small intestine, where it is predominantly found in neurons, goblet cells, and enterocytes. The enzyme's activity is influenced by the availability of glutamate and NAD(P)H, and it is also regulated by post-translational modifications, such as phosphorylation and ubiquitination. **Pathways and Functions:** GLUD2 plays a central role in the regulation of glutamate metabolism, which is essential for maintaining glutamate homeostasis in the brain and other tissues. The enzyme is involved in the conversion of glutamate to α-ketoglutarate, producing ammonia as a byproduct. This reaction is crucial for the production of glutamine, which is then transported to the liver for detoxification. Additionally, GLUD2 is involved in the regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis and organelle biogenesis, which are essential for maintaining cellular energy homeostasis. The enzyme is also involved in the transcriptional activation of mitochondrial biogenesis, suggesting a potential role in the regulation of mitochondrial function and biogenesis. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of GLUD2 has been implicated in various neurological and metabolic disorders, including epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, and type 2 diabetes. For example, studies have shown that GLUD2 is overexpressed in the brains of individuals with epilepsy, suggesting a potential role in the pathogenesis of this disease. Additionally, GLUD2 has been shown to play a role in the regulation of mitochondrial function in neurons, which is essential for maintaining neuronal homeostasis and preventing neurodegeneration. Furthermore, GLUD2 has been implicated in the regulation of glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity, suggesting a potential role in the pathogenesis of metabolic disorders. In conclusion, GLUD2 is a mitochondrial enzyme that plays a critical role in glutamate metabolism and regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis and organelle biogenesis. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various neurological and metabolic disorders, highlighting the importance of this enzyme in maintaining cellular homeostasis and preventing disease. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the mechanisms underlying GLUD2's functions and to explore its potential as a therapeutic target for the treatment of these disorders.
