Ahcy adenosylhomocysteinase [Rattus norvegicus (Norway rat)] - Gene

Summary

Official Symbol: Ahcyprovided by RGD
Official Full Name: adenosylhomocysteinaseprovided by RGD
Primary source: RGD:69260
See related: Ensembl:ENSRNOG00000017777 AllianceGenome:RGD:69260
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: PROVISIONAL
Organism: Rattus norvegicus
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Myomorpha; Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Rattus
Summary: Enables adenosylhomocysteinase activity; identical protein binding activity; and nucleotide binding activity. Involved in several processes, including S-adenosylhomocysteine catabolic process; chronic inflammatory response to antigenic stimulus; and circadian sleep/wake cycle. Located in cytosol; neuron projection; and nucleus. Used to study hyperhomocysteinemia and pyridoxine deficiency anemia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypermethioninemia with deficiency of S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase. Orthologous to human AHCY (adenosylhomocysteinase).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
