Background
Glutamate decarboxylase 1 (brain, 67kDa) (GAD67), also known as GAD1, is one of several forms of glutamic acid decarboxylase, identified as a major autoantigen in insulin-dependent diabetes. This enzyme is responsible for catalyzing the production of gamma-aminobutyric acid from L-glutamic acid. A pathogenic role for this enzyme has been identified in the human pancreas since it has been identified as an autoantigen and an autoreactive T cell target in insulin-dependent diabetes. Deficiency in this enzyme has been shown to lead to pyridoxine dependency with seizures.
