Description

Predicted to enable guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in creatine biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within methylation. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including digestive system; eye; heart; pleuroperitoneal region; and yolk. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in amino acid metabolic disorder and guanidinoacetate methyltransferase deficiency. Orthologous to human GAMT (guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase).
