MAT2A - methionine adenosyltransferase 2A Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as MATA2; MATII; SAMS2

Gene ID: 4144 | Gene type: protein coding

About MAT2A

Cytogenetic location: 2p11.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:85,539,168-85,545,281 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 292 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in thyroid (RPKM 234.0), adrenal (RPKM 141.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the production of S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) from methionine and ATP. AdoMet is the key methyl donor in cellular processes. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]
