About BMT2

Cytogenetic location: 7q31.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:112,819,147-112,939,875 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants) and 206 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 5.8), heart (RPKM 5.2) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Enables S-adenosyl-L-methionine binding activity. Involved in cellular response to amino acid starvation and negative regulation of TORC1 signaling. Colocalizes with GATOR1 complex and KICSTOR complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
