General Information of the m6A Target Gene (ID: M6ATAR00766)
Target Name L-glutamine amidohydrolase (GLS2)
Synonyms
GA; Glutaminase liver isoform; mitochondrial; GLS; EC 3.5.1.2 ; L-glutaminase ; L-glutamine amidohydrolase
    Click to Show/Hide
Gene Name GLS2
Chromosomal Location 12q13.3
Family Glutaminase family
Function
Plays an important role in the regulation of glutamine catabolism. Promotes mitochondrial respiration and increases ATP generation in cells by catalyzing the synthesis of glutamate and alpha-ketoglutarate. Increases cellular anti-oxidant function via NADH and glutathione production. May play a role in preventing tumor proliferation.
