Betaine-homocysteine methyltransferase (BHMT) is a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of betaine and homocysteine to dimethylglycine and methionine, respectively. BHMT displays differential expression in a model of liver cirrhosis.
Betaine Homocysteine S-Methyltransferase Human Recombinant fused to His Tag at N-terminal produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 443 amino acids (21-236) and having a molecular mass of 49.2 kDa. The BHMT is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
| UniProt Protein Function: | BHMT: 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. |
| UniProt Protein Details: | Protein type:Amino Acid Metabolism - glycine, serine and threonine; Amino Acid Metabolism - cysteine and methionine; EC 2.1.1.5; Methyltransferase Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 5q14.1 Cellular Component: protein complex; cytoplasm; cytosol Molecular Function:betaine-homocysteine S-methyltransferase activity; homocysteine S-methyltransferase activity; zinc ion binding; protein complex binding Biological Process: S-methylmethionine cycle; protein amino acid methylation; betaine catabolic process; sulfur amino acid metabolic process; S-adenosylmethionine metabolic process; response to organic nitrogen; regulation of homocysteine metabolic process; betaine metabolic process |
| NCBI Summary: | 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. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
