aminomethyltransferase
Symbol
AMT
(may also be known as: None)
Organism
Human
Description
This gene encodes one of four critical components of the glycine cleavage system. Mutations in this gene have been associated with glycine encephalopathy. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]
