About Gls

Chromosome 1: 52,202,607-52,272,391 reverse strand.GRCm39:CM000994.3

This gene has 17 transcripts (splice variants), 305 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 7 phenotypes. Broad expression in CNS E18 (RPKM 2.), cortex adult (RPKM 19.9) and 26 other tissues.

Summary

Enables Glutaminase activity and identical protein binding activity. Involved in glutamate biosynthetic process; glutamine catabolic process; and protein homotetramerization. Acts upstream of or within chemical synaptic transmission; regulation of respiratory gaseous exchange by nervous system process; and suckling behavior. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; genitourinary system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 71. Orthologous to human GLS (Glutaminase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
