About AHCY

Cytogenetic location: 20q11.22 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 20:34,231,981-34,311,836 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 218 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in kidney (RPKM 29.2), thyroid (RPKM 22.9) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase belongs to the adenosylhomocysteinase family. It catalyzes the reversible hydrolysis of S-adenosylhomocysteine (AdoHcy) to adenosine (Ado) and L-homocysteine (Hcy). Thus, it regulates the intracellular S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) concentration thought to be important for transmethylation reactions. Deficiency in this protein is one of the different causes of hypermethioninemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
