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.
GPD1L contains the following domains:
Northern blot analysis detected a single GPD1L transcript in all tissues examined except liver. Highest expression was in heart and skeletal muscle.
Mutations in the GPD1L gene are associated with the Brugada syndrome and sudden infant death syndrome.
