CARNS1 - carnosine synthase 1 Gene
Also Known as ATPGD1
Species: Homo sapiens
About CARNS1
This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 83 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 21.1), thyroid (RPKM 2.9) and 3 other tissues.
Summary
CARNS1 (EC 6.3.2.11), a member of the ATP-grasp family of ATPases, catalyzes the formation of carnosine (beta-alanyl-L-histidine) and homocarnosine (gamma-aminobutyryl-L-histidine), which are found mainly in skeletal muscle and the central nervous system, respectively (Drozak et al., 2010 [PubMed 20097752]).[supplied by OMIM, Apr 2010]
