Catalytic ActivityL-glutamate + H(2)O + NAD(P)(+) = 2- oxoglutarate + NH(3) + NAD(P)H. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE- ProRule:PRU10011}.
DiseaseFamilial hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia 6 (HHF6) [MIM:606762]: Familial hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia [MIM:256450], also referred to as congenital hyperinsulinism, nesidioblastosis, or persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy (PPHI), is the most common cause of persistent hypoglycemia in infancy and is due to defective negative feedback regulation of insulin secretion by low glucose levels. In HHF6 elevated oxidation rate of glutamate to alpha-ketoglutarate stimulates insulin secretion in the pancreatic beta cells, while they impair detoxification of ammonium in the liver. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10636977, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11214910, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11297618, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9571255}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Enzyme RegulationSubject to allosteric regulation. Activated by ADP. Inhibited by GTP and ATP. ADP can occupy the NADH binding site and activate the enzyme.
FunctionMitochondrial glutamate dehydrogenase that converts L- glutamate into alpha-ketoglutarate. Plays a key role in glutamine anaplerosis by producing alpha-ketoglutarate, an important intermediate in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. May be involved in learning and memory reactions by increasing the turnover of the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
PtmADP-ribosylated by SIRT4, leading to inactivate glutamate dehydrogenase activity (By similarity). Stoichiometry shows that ADP-ribosylation occurs in one subunit per catalytically active homohexamer. {ECO:0000250}.
SimilarityBelongs to the Glu/Leu/Phe/Val dehydrogenases family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationMitochondrion matrix.
SubunitHomohexamer.
