BHMT Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

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.
