Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 3176
Gene name Histamine N-methyltransferase
Gene symbol HNMT
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
HMTHNMT-S1HNMT-S2MRT51
Chromosome 2
Chromosome location 2q22.1
Summary In mammals, histamine is metabolized by two major pathways: N(tau)-methylation via histamine N-methyltransferase and oxidative deamination via diamine oxidase. This gene encodes the first enzyme which is found in the cytosol and uses S-adenosyl-L-methioni
