Difference between Gamma-Aminobutyric acid and Glutamate decarboxylase

Gamma-Aminobutyric acid vs. Glutamate decarboxylase

gamma-Aminobutyric acid, or γ-aminobutyric acid, or GABA, is the chief inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system. Glutamate decarboxylase or glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) is an enzyme that catalyzes the decarboxylation of glutamate to GABA and CO2.
