Protein: Glutaminase kidney isoform, mitochondrial (GLS) (EC 3.5.1.2) (K-glutaminase) (L-glutamine amidohydrolase) [Cleaved into: Glutaminase kidney isoform, mitochondrial 68 kDa chain; Glutaminase kidney isoform, mitochondrial 65 kDa chain] (P13264)
Organism: Rattus norvegicus (Rat)
Function: Catalyzes the first reaction in the primary pathway for the renal catabolism of glutamine. Plays a role in maintaining acid-base homeostasis. Regulates the levels of the neurotransmitter glutamate, the main excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain.
Subcellular location: [Isoform 1]: Mitochondrion {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1991024}. Cytoplasm, cytosol {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1991024}. Note=The 74-kDa cytosolic precursor is translocated into the mitochondria and processed via a 72-kDa intermediate to yield the mature 68 and 65-kDa subunits. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1991024}.; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: [Glutaminase kidney isoform, mitochondrial 68 kDa chain]: Mitochondrion matrix {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1991024, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7836378}. Note=Produced by the proteolytic processing of the 74-kDa cytosolic precursor. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1991024, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7836378}.; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: [Glutaminase kidney isoform, mitochondrial 65 kDa chain]: Mitochondrion matrix {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1991024, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7836378}.
