Betaine Metabolism
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000123MetabolicIn the liver, betaine functions as a methyl donor similar to choline, folic acid, S-adenosyl methionine and vitamin B12.
Enzymes: S-adenosylmethionine synthase isoform type-2, Betaine--homocysteine S-methyltransferase 1Methionine Adenosyltransferase Deficiency
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0125683DiseaseMethionine adenosyltransferase (MAT; Hypermethioninemia; MAT I/III deficiency) deficiency is caused by mutations in the MAT1A gene which causes isolated hypermethioninemia. MAT catalyzes the formation of adenosylmethionine from methionin...
