Sign in to saveAlso known as GPD1-L, glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase 1-like, glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase 1 like
GPD1L is a human gene. The protein encoded by this gene contains a glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD+) motif and shares 72% sequence identity with GPD1.

- Type
- protein-coding
- Aliases
- GPD1-L
The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the conversion of sn-glycerol 3-phosphate to glycerone phosphate. The encoded protein is found in the cytoplasm, associated with the plasma membrane, where it binds the sodium channel, voltage-gated, type V, alpha subunit (SCN5A). Defects in this gene are a cause of Brugada syndrome type 2 (BRS2) as well as sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010].

GPD1L is a human gene. The protein encoded by this gene contains a glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD+) motif and shares 72% sequence identity with GPD1.
==Structure== GPD1L contains the following domains: N-terminal – NAD+ consensus binding site a site homologous to the cardiac sodium channel SCN5A C-terminal lysine-206 residue
