Gene Information

human ... BHMT(635)

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human BHMT

Biochem/physiol Actions

BHMT is a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of betaine and homocysteine to dimethylglycine and methionine, respectively. Defects in its gene could lead to hyperhomocyst(e)inemia, but such a defect has not yet been observed.Betaine-homocysteine methyltransferase is a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of betaine and homocysteine to dimethylglycine and methionine, respectively.

Anders Øverbye et al.
Autophagy, 7(9), 1011-1027 (2011-05-26)
To investigate the stepwise autophagic-lysosomal processing of hepatocellular proteins, the abundant cytosolic enzyme, betaine:homocysteine methyltransferase (BHMT) was used as a probe. Full-length (45 kDa) endogenous BHMT was found to be cleaved in an autophagy-dependent (3-methyladenine-sensitive) manner in isolated rat hepatocytes
