About Gls

Primary_assembly 9: 49,344,781-49,416,900 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026982.1

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 305 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 9 phenotypes. Biased expression in Kidney (RPKM 45.8), Brain (RPKM 295.5) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Predicted to enable Glutaminase activity and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in glutamate homeostasis; glutamine family amino acid metabolic process; and protein homotetramerization. Predicted to act upstream of or within chemical synaptic transmission; regulation of respiratory gaseous exchange by nervous system process; and suckling behavior. Located in mitochondrion. 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]
