General description
MTR codes for 5-methyltetrahydrofolate-homocysteine methyltransferase that catalyzes the last step in methionine synthesis. Genetic alterations in MTR have been associated with methylcobalamin deficiency, breast cancer risk and prostate cancer susceptibility.
Rabbit Anti-MTR antibody recognizes chicken, human, mouse, rat, and bovine MTR.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human MTR
Application
Rabbit Anti-MTR antibody is suitable for western blot applications at a concentration of 1μg/ml.
Biochem/physiol Actions
MTR is the enzyme 5-methyltetrahydrofolate-homocysteine methyltransferase. This enzyme, also known as cobalamin-dependent methionine synthase, catalyzes the final step in methionine biosynthesis. Mutations in MTR have been identified as the underlying cause of methylcobalamin deficiency complementation group G. MTR encodes the enzyme 5-methyltetrahydrofolate-homocysteine methyltransferase. This enzyme, also known as cobalamin-dependent methionine synthase, catalyzes the final step in methionine biosynthesis. Mutations in MTR have been identified as the underlying cause of methylcobalamin deficiency complementation group G. Sequence Note: This RefSeq record was created from transcript and genomic sequence data because no single transcript was available for the full length of the gene. The extent of this transcript is supported by transcript alignments. Publication Note: This RefSeq record includes a subset of the publications that are available for this gene. Please see the Entrez Gene record to access additional publications.
