GAD — Cucumis melo

Summary

MELO3C005223.2, symbol GAD, on melon chromosome 10, encodes a glutamate decarboxylase with glutamate decarboxylase activity, pyridoxal phosphate binding, and calmodulin binding. The enzyme is localised to the cytosol and is associated with glutamate breakdown, the GABA shunt, and NO storage. Related genes in other species link the family to glutamate decarboxylase activity (EC 4.1.1.15).
