Glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase 2; gnpda2
Gnp2

DESCRIPTION

Glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase (EC 3.5.99.6) is an allosteric enzyme that catalyzes the reversible conversion of D-glucosamine-6-phosphate into D-fructose-6-phosphate and ammonium (Arreola et al., 2003).

CLONING

By searching databases for sequences similar to mouse Gnp2, Arreola et al. (2003) identified human GNP2. The deduced mouse and human GNP2 proteins contain 276 amino acids and share 96.8% identity. Human GNP1 (GNPDA1; 601798) and GNP2 share 87% amino acid identity.

BIOCHEMICAL FEATURES

Using computer modeling, Arreola et al. (2003) compared the predicted conformation of human GNP2 with the crystal structure of human GNP1. Both enzymes shared the same fold and were predicted to form hexameric particles. Most of the differences between the 2 proteins were located at the surface. However, other substitutions appeared to reposition the phosphate-binding loop closer to the active site in GNP2 compared with GNP1.

GENE STRUCTURE

Arreola et al. (2003) determined that the GNPDA2 gene contains 6 exons.

MOLECULAR GENETICS

Willer et al. (2009) performed a metaanalysis of 15 genomewide association studies for BMI comprising 32,387 participants and followed up top signals in 14 additional cohorts comprising 59,082 participants. They identified association with a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) near the GNPDA2 gene, dbSNP rs10938397, with a per-allele change in BMI of 0.19 and stage 1 plus stage 2 combined P value of 3.4 x 10(-16).

MAPPING

By genomic sequence analysis, Arreola et al. (2003) mapped the GNPDA2 gene to chromosome 4p13. ... More on the omim web site
