Product Description
Glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP) is the catalytic enzyme for glutamate production. Dysfunction of Glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP) may induce various neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, and frontotemporal dementia. Glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP) can be used in research on neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, and Alzheimer's disease.
