Identification
HMDB Protein ID CDBP00447
Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Glycine amidinotransferase, mitochondrial
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. L-arginine:glycine amidinotransferase
  2. Transamidinase
Gene Name GATM
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Amino acid transport and metabolism
Specific Function Catalyzes the biosynthesis of guanidinoacetate, the immediate precursor of creatine. Creatine plays a vital role in energy metabolism in muscle tissues. May play a role in embryonic and central nervous system development. May be involved in the response to heart failure by elevating local creatine synthesis.
