About INMT

Cytogenetic location: 7p14.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:30,752,135-30,757,602 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 80 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Broad expression in lung (RPKM 67.4), adrenal (RPKM 18.7) and 14 other tissues.

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 transcription also exists between this gene and the downstream MINDY4 (aka FAM188B) gene. In rodents and Other mammals such as cetartiodactyla this gene is in the opposite orientation compared to its orientation in human and Other primates and this gene appears to have been lost in carnivora and chiroptera.
