Gene: AMT

Alternate names for this Gene: GCE|GCST|GCVT|NKH

Gene Summary: 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.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 3

Location in Chromosome : 3p21.31

Description of this Gene: aminomethyltransferase

Type of Gene: protein-coding

Gene: NICN1

Alternate names for this Gene: -

Gene Summary: This protein encoded by this gene localizes to the nucleus and is expressed in numerous tissues including brain, testis, liver, and kidney. This refseq contains genomic sequence in its 3' UTR which is not supported by experimental evidence. Computer predictions indicate that this region of the 3' UTR contains hairpin-forming self-complementary sequence which is possibly excised after transcription. This gene has a pseudogene on chromosome X.
