Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 4837
Gene name Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase
Gene symbol NNMT
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
-
Chromosome 11
Chromosome location 11q23.2
Summary N-methylation is one method by which drug and other xenobiotic compounds are metabolized by the liver. This gene encodes the protein responsible for this enzymatic activity which uses S-adenosyl methionine as the methyl donor. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 200

Protein name Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.1)
Protein function Catalyzes the N-methylation of nicotinamide using the universal methyl donor S-adenosyl-L-methionine to form N1-methylnicotinamide and S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine, a predominant nicotinamide/vitamin B3 clearance pathway (PubMed:21823666, PubMed:23
