Other Names | Aminomethyltransferase, mitochondrial, Glycine cleavage system T protein, GCVT, AMT, GCST |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP6739a was selected from the N-term region of human AMT. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | AMT (HGNC:473) |

Background
The enzyme system for cleavage of glycine (glycine cleavage system; EC 2.1.2.10), which is confined to the mitochondria, is composed of 4 protein components: P protein (a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent glycine decarboxylase; MIM 238300), H protein (a lipoic acid-containing protein; MIM 238330), T protein (a tetrahydrofolate-requiring enzyme), and L protein (a lipoamide dehydrogenase; MIM 238331). Glycine encephalopathy (GCE; MIM 605899) may be due to a defect in any one of these enzymes.
