Active Recombinant Human GNMT Protein, His-tagged, Bioactivity Validated

• Cat.No.: GNMT-232H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human GNMT(1-295aa) fused with His tag at N-terminal was expressed in E. coli. Bioactivity Validated.

Specification

• Description: Glycine N-methyltransferase, also known as GNMT, catalyzes the synthesis of N-methylglycine (sarcosine) from glycine using S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) as the methyl donor. This protein affects DNA methylation by regulating the ratio of S-adenosylmethionine to S-adenosylhomocystine and participates in the detoxification pathway in liver cells. Also it is reported that GNMT expression is diminished in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
