ASMT - acetylserotonin O-methyltransferase Gene
Also Known as ASMTY; HIOMT; HIOMTY
Species: Homo sapiens
About ASMT
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 213 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 1.4), bone marrow (RPKM 1.3) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily, and is located in the pseudoautosomal region (PAR) at the end of the short arms of the X and Y chromosomes. The encoded enzyme catalyzes the final reaction in the synthesis of melatonin, and is abundant in the pineal gland. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been noted for this gene.
