Entrez ID 11185
Gene name Indolethylamine N-methyltransferase
Gene symbol INMT
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
TEMT
Chromosome 7
Chromosome location 7p14.3
Summary N-methylation of endogenous and xenobiotic compounds is a major method by which they are degraded. This gene encodes an enzyme that N-methylates indoles such as tryptamine. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Read-through transcr
