INMT Products

Description

INMT is a gene which codes for a protein that functions as a thioether S-methyltransferase which is necessary in the detoxification of selenium compounds and the catalyzation of the N-methylations of tryptamine and compounds with similar structures and has two isoforms with lengths of 263 and 262 amino acids, that both have a weight of approximately 29 kDa. Current studies are being done on diseases and disorders relating to this gene including appendicitis, homosydteine, thryoditis, and carcinoma. INMT has also been shown to interact with KCNMA1, FMO1, IDO1, AANAT, and ABP1 in pathways such as the tryptophan metabolism and selenocompound metabolism pathways.
