AMT - aminomethyltransferase Gene
Also Known as GCE; NKH; GCST; GCVT
Species: Homo sapiens
About AMT
This gene has 57 transcripts (splice variants), 213 orthologues, 10 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in kidney (RPKM 16.6), liver (RPKM 14.9) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes one of four critical components of the glycine cleavage system. Mutations in this gene have been associated with glycine encephalopathy. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]
