Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** GATB is a subunit of the glutaminyl-tRNA amidotransferase complex, which consists of two subunits: GATB and GATC. The GATB subunit is responsible for the catalytic activity of the complex, while the GATC subunit provides structural support. GATB is a mitochondrial protein, and its expression is tightly regulated by various cellular mechanisms. The enzyme has a high affinity for glutamine and tRNA, and its activity is essential for the proper functioning of the Glu-T complex. **Pathways and Functions:** The glutaminyl-tRNA amidotransferase complex, in which GATB is a crucial component, plays a central role in the biosynthesis of glutamine via transamidation. This process involves the transfer of an amino group from glutamine to tRNA, which is then incorporated into proteins. GATB is involved in the following pathways: 1. **Glutaminyl-trnagln biosynthesis via transamidation**: GATB catalyzes the transfer of an amino group from glutamine to tRNA, thereby facilitating the incorporation of glutamine into proteins. 2. **Glutamyl-trna synthase (glutamine-hydrolyzing) activity**: GATB is involved in the hydrolysis of glutamine, which is a critical step in the biosynthesis of glutamine via transamidation. 3. **Mitochondrial translation**: GATB is a mitochondrial protein, and its expression is essential for the proper functioning of mitochondrial translation. 4. **Protein binding**: GATB can bind to various proteins, including tRNA and glutamine, thereby regulating the activity of the Glu-T complex. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of GATB has been implicated in several neurological and cardiovascular disorders, including: 1. **Neurological disorders**: GATB has been linked to neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, due to its role in the regulation of glutamine metabolism. 2. **Cardiovascular disorders**: GATB has been implicated in cardiovascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis and cardiac arrhythmias, due to its role in regulating glutamine metabolism and mitochondrial function. 3. **Cancer**: GATB has been linked to cancer, particularly in the context of glutamine metabolism and mitochondrial function. In conclusion, GATB is a crucial component of the glutaminyl-tRNA amidotransferase complex, which plays a central role in the biosynthesis of glutamine via transamidation. Its dysregulation has been implicated in several neurological and cardiovascular disorders, highlighting the importance of GATB in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the clinical significance of GATB and to explore its potential as a therapeutic target for various diseases.
