GPD2 - glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase 2 Gene
Also Known as GDH2; GPDM; mGDH; mGPDH
Species: Homo sapiens
About GPD2
This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants) and 246 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in colon (RPKM 11.8), brain (RPKM 10.3) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene localizes to the inner mitochondrial membrane and catalyzes the conversion of glycerol-3-phosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate, using FAD as a cofactor. Along with GDP1, the encoded protein constitutes the glycerol phosphate shuttle, which reoxidizes NADH formed during glycolysis. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]
