About SHMT1

Cytogenetic location: 17p11.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 17:18,327,873-18,363,550 (from NCBI)

This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 208 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Biased expression in kidney (RPKM 121.9), liver (RPKM 84.9) and 13 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes the cytosolic form of serine hydroxymethyltransferase, a pyridoxal phosphate-containing Enzyme that catalyzes the reversible conversion of serine and tetrahydrofolate to glycine and 5,10-methylene tetrahydrofolate. This reaction provides one-carbon units for synthesis of methionine, thymidylate, and purines in the cytoplasm. This gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. A pseudogene of this gene is located on the short arm of chromosome 1. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]
