Entrez ID 2593
Gene name Guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase
Gene symbol GAMT
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CCDS2HEL-S-20PIG2TP53I2
Chromosome 19
Chromosome location 19p13.3
Summary The protein encoded by this gene is a methyltransferase that converts guanidoacetate to creatine, using S-adenosylmethionine as the methyl donor. Defects in this gene have been implicated in neurologic syndromes and muscular hypotonia, probably due to cre
