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]
uniprot summary :
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. Protein type: EC 2.1.1.5; Amino Acid Metabolism - glycine, serine and threonine; Methyltransferase; Amino Acid Metabolism - cysteine and methionine. 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; betaine metabolic process; regulation of homocysteine metabolic process
