About GATM

Cytogenetic location: 15q21.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 15:45,361,124-45,402,227 (from NCBI)

This gene has 19 transcripts (splice variants), 208 orthologues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Biased expression in kidney (RPKM 706.9), liver (RPKM 467.2) and 8 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a mitochondrial Enzyme that belongs to the amidinotransferase family. This Enzyme is involved in creatine biosynthesis, whereby it catalyzes the transfer of a guanido group from L-arginine to glycine, resulting in guanidinoacetic acid, the immediate precursor of creatine. Mutations in this gene cause arginine:glycine amidinotransferase deficiency, an inborn error of creatine synthesis characterized by cognitive disability, language impairment, and behavioral disorders.
