Target Name
BHMT
Target Full Name
Betaine--homocysteine S-methyltransferase 1
Target Function
Involved in the regulation of homocysteine metabolism. Converts betaine and homocysteine to dimethylglycine and methionine, respectively. This reaction is also required for the irreversible oxidation of choline.
Target Subcellular Location
Cytoplasm.
Target Tissue Specificity
Found exclusively in liver and kidney.
Target Synonyms
Betaine homocysteine methyltransferase; Betaine homocysteine S methyltransferase 1; Betaine homocysteine S methyltransferase; Betaine--homocysteine S-methyltransferase 1; BHMT; BHMT1; BHMT1_HUMAN; EC 2.1.1.5; Epididymis secretory sperm binding protein Li 61p; HEL S 61p
Target Background
This gene encodes a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of betaine and homocysteine to dimethylglycine and methionine, respectively. Defects in this gene could lead to hyperhomocyst(e)inemia, but such a defect has not yet been observed.
