Gene Description

GLUD1 encodes glutamate dehydrogenase 1, the major, ubiquitously expressed mitochondrial-matrix enzyme that catalyzes the reversible oxidative deamination of L-glutamate to 2-oxoglutarate (alpha-ketoglutarate) with release of ammonia, using NAD(+) or NADP(+) as cofactor (EC 1.4.1.3). It is the central metabolic link between amino-acid/nitrogen metabolism and the tricarboxylic acid cycle, providing anaplerotic alpha-ketoglutarate and channeling ammonia toward the urea cycle. The mature enzyme (after cleavage of an N-terminal mitochondrial transit peptide) assembles into a homohexamer whose activity is tightly allosterically regulated: it is activated by ADP and L-leucine and inhibited by GTP and ATP, and it is inactivated by SIRT4-mediated ADP-ribosylation. The bulk of the protein localizes to the mitochondrial matrix, with a small pool in the endoplasmic reticulum and cytoplasm. In pancreatic beta-cells GLUD1 couples amino-acid catabolism to insulin secretion, and in the brain it contributes to turnover of the neurotransmitter glutamate. Dominant gain-of-function mutations that impair GTP inhibition cause the hyperinsulinism-hyperammonemia syndrome (familial hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia type 6).

IBA
GO_REF:0000033
ACCEPT
Summary: Phylogenetic (PAN-GO) inference of the NAD(+)-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase activity. This is the well-established catalytic activity of GLUD1 and is directly supported by human experimental data. Because GLUD1 is a genuine dual-cofactor enzyme using both NAD(+) and NADP(+), the umbrella term GO:0004353 [NAD(P)+] is the most representative core function; the NAD(+)-specific term is accurate as a component of that activity.

Core Functions

L-glutamate dehydrogenase [NAD(P)+] activity: catalyzes the reversible oxidative deamination of L-glutamate to 2-oxoglutarate (alpha-ketoglutarate) with release of ammonia, using either NAD(+) or NADP(+) as the redox cofactor, in the mitochondrial matrix. This is the defining catalytic activity of GLUD1 and the central link between amino-acid/nitrogen metabolism and the TCA cycle.

  • Catalytic activity (dual cofactor). UniProt lists two reactions:
  • L-glutamate + NAD(+) + H2O = 2-oxoglutarate + NH4(+) + NADH + H(+) (RHEA:15133), EC 1.4.1.3
  • L-glutamate + NADP(+) + H2O = 2-oxoglutarate + NH4(+) + NADPH + H(+) (RHEA:11612), EC 1.4.1.3
    So the enzyme uses both NAD+ and NADP+ — the umbrella MF is GO:0004353
    "L-glutamate dehydrogenase [NAD(P)+] activity" (parents GO:0004352 NAD+ and GO:0004354 NADP+).
    PMID:11254391 (bovine GDH structures): "only animal GDH utilizes both NAD(H) or NADP(H)
    with comparable efficacy".
  • Reaction direction / reversibility. Fang et al.: "Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH)
    catalyses the reversible oxidative deamination of l-glutamate to 2-oxoglutarate in the
    mitochondrial matrix" PMID:11903050.
    Reactome models both directions (R-HSA-70600 forward, R-HSA-70589 reverse).
  • Allosteric regulation. "Subject to allosteric regulation. Activated by ADP
    (PubMed:11903050). Inhibited by GTP and ATP ... ADP can occupy the NADH binding site and
    activate the enzyme (PubMed:16023112). Inhibited by SIRT4 (PubMed:16959573)"
    [file:human/GLUD1/GLUD1-uniprot.txt]. Leucine is an allosteric activator; ADP sensitizes
    the enzyme to leucine PMID:11032875.
    Nonactivated GLUD1 is potently inhibited by GTP (IC50 = 0.20 microM)
    PMID:11032875.
  • Quaternary structure. Homohexamer [file:human/GLUD1/GLUD1-uniprot.txt "Homohexamer (By similarity)"];
    ADP-ribosylation occurs on one subunit per catalytically active homohexamer
    PMID:16023112.
  • PTM / SIRT4. "SIRT4 is a mitochondrial enzyme that uses NAD to ADP-ribosylate and
    downregulate glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) activity" PMID:16959573.
    ADP-ribosylation site is Cys172 in the mature-numbering UniProt feature (paper identifies
    the reactive Cys as "Cys119" in their synthetic-gene numbering) PMID:16023112.

Localization

  • Mitochondrion + endoplasmic reticulum. UniProt SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: "Mostly translocates
    into the mitochondria, only a small amount of the protein localizes to the endoplasmic
    reticulum" [file:human/GLUD1/GLUD1-uniprot.txt "only a small amount of the protein"].
    Experimental basis PMID:19448744: "while most of the hGDHs translocate into the
    mitochondria (a process associated with cleavage of the signal sequence), part of the
    protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum" PMID:19448744.
  • Reactome places the active enzyme in the mitochondrial matrix (GO:0005759).
  • Cytoplasm (GO:0005737, IDA PMID:18688271): Rosso et al. showed "GLUD1 localizes to the
    mitochondria as well as the cytoplasm" whereas GLUD2 is mitochondria-specific
    PMID:18688271. This is a
    minor pool; the mitochondrial matrix is the primary site of function.

Disease

  • Hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia, familial, 6 (HHF6 / HI/HA syndrome; MIM:606762). Autosomal
    dominant, "hypoglycemia due to congenital hyperinsulinism combined with persistent
    hyperammonemia" [file:human/GLUD1/GLUD1-uniprot.txt "combined with"]. Caused by gain-of-function
    regulatory mutations that desensitize GDH to GTP inhibition: "Mutations of glutamate
    dehydrogenase cause the hyperinsulinism/hyperammonemia syndrome by desensitizing glutamate
    dehydrogenase to allosteric inhibition by GTP" PMID:11502802. Loss of GTP inhibition leaves leucine
    activation unopposed, producing exaggerated leucine-stimulated insulin release
    PMID:11502802.

Interactions

  • KLHL22 (Q53GT1): cryo-EM structure of CUL3(KLHL22)-RBX1 bound to a GDH1 hexamer;
    "CULLIN3KLHL22-RBX1 ligase mediated the polyubiquitination of GDH1 in vitro"
    PMID:37788672.
    So KLHL22 is a CUL3 substrate-adapter that ubiquitinates GDH1. UniProt records this
    IntAct interaction (NbExp=10).
  • GLUD2 (P49448): paralog; recorded IntAct interaction.
  • High-throughput interactome IPIs (BioPlex: PMID:28514442, PMID:33961781; cell-map:
    PMID:40205054) contribute generic "protein binding" annotations.

Annotation review reasoning (summary)

  • Core molecular function = GO:0004353 L-glutamate dehydrogenase [NAD(P)+] activity
    (dual cofactor). The cofactor-specific children GO:0004352 (NAD+) and GO:0004354 (NADP+)
    are experimentally supported (NAD+ EXP/IDA in multiple papers; NADP+ EXP PMID:11032875)
    and kept as ACCEPT / non-core specializations.
  • Regulatory-ligand binding (ADP GO:0043531, GTP GO:0005525, L-leucine GO:0070728, NAD+
    GO:0070403) are genuine allosteric/cofactor-binding functions; ADP binding is core to the
    ADP-activated physiological state, others kept as accepted non-core.
  • Localization: mitochondrion/mitochondrial matrix are core; ER and cytoplasm are minor real
    pools kept as non-core.
  • Insulin-secretion and substantia-nigra/neuro terms are real physiology but downstream/
    tissue-specific → KEEP_AS_NON_CORE (or over-annotation for HEP proteomics).
  • Bare "protein binding" (GO:0005515) IPIs → MARK_AS_OVER_ANNOTATED (uninformative; the
    meaningful partner KLHL22 is captured structurally but the GO term itself is not
    informative).
  • No experimental annotation is REMOVEd. Wrong-branch / redundant IEA (oxidoreductase
    activity, generic amino acid metabolic process) → MODIFY or KEEP_AS_NON_CORE per policy.

  label: Homo sapiens
description: >-
  GLUD1 encodes glutamate dehydrogenase 1, the major, ubiquitously expressed
  mitochondrial-matrix enzyme that catalyzes the reversible oxidative deamination
  of L-glutamate to 2-oxoglutarate (alpha-ketoglutarate) with release of ammonia,
  using NAD(+) or NADP(+) as cofactor (EC 1.4.1.3). It is the central metabolic
  link between amino-acid/nitrogen metabolism and the tricarboxylic acid cycle,
  providing anaplerotic alpha-ketoglutarate and channeling ammonia toward the urea
  cycle. The mature enzyme (after cleavage of an N-terminal mitochondrial transit
  peptide) assembles into a homohexamer whose activity is tightly allosterically
  regulated: it is activated by ADP and L-leucine and inhibited by GTP and ATP,
  and it is inactivated by SIRT4-mediated ADP-ribosylation. The bulk of the protein
  localizes to the mitochondrial matrix, with a small pool in the endoplasmic
  reticulum and cytoplasm. In pancreatic beta-cells GLUD1 couples amino-acid
  catabolism to insulin secretion, and in the brain it contributes to turnover of
  the neurotransmitter glutamate. Dominant gain-of-function mutations that impair
  GTP inhibition cause the hyperinsulinism-hyperammonemia syndrome (familial
  hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia type 6).
