Biochem/physiol Actions
L-glutamic dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversion of glutamate to α-ketoglutarate.
Mammalian forms of this enzyme, including this bovine form, can use either NADP(H) or NAD(H) as coenzymes. L-glutamic dehydrogenase plays a unique role in mammalian metabolism. The reverse reaction catalyzed by this enzyme is the only pathway by which ammonia can become bound to the α-carbon atom of an α-carboxylic acid and thus, is the only source of de novo amino acid synthesis in mammalian species.
The bovine enzyme is characterized by three sets of properties:
L-glutamic dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversion of glutamate to α-ketoglutarate.
The bovine enzyme is characterized by three sets of properties:
- It has a reversible concentration-dependent association, producing higher molecular weight forms.
- Forms tight enzyme-reduced coenzyme-substrate ternary complexes whose rates of dissociation modulate the steady-state reaction rates.
- Exhibits a wide variety of effects from the binding of any of a number of nucleotide modifiers.
L-glutamic dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversion of glutamate to α-ketoglutarate.

Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) in human exists in GLUD1 and GLUD2 gene-encoded isoforms (hGDH1 and hGDH2, respectively), differing in their regulation and tissue expression pattern. Whereas hGDH1 is subject to GTP control, hGDH2 uses for its regulation, a novel molecular mechanism

Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) has recently been shown to be involved in two genetic disorders of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia in children. These include the hyperinsulinism/hyperammonemia syndrome caused by dominant activating mutations of GLUD1 which interfere with inhibitory regulation by GTP and hyperinsulinism

In all mammals, glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), an enzyme central to the metabolism of glutamate, is encoded by a single gene (GLUD1 in humans) which is expressed widely (housekeeping). Humans and other primates also possess a second gene, GLUD2, which encodes
