Description
Recombinant Human BHMT2 (S-methylmethionine--homocysteine S-methyltransferase) Fragment (residues 1-363) is a high-purity protein encompassing the full-length functional domain, including the homocysteine-binding region. This fragment serves as an essential tool for investigating homocysteine metabolism and methyltransferase activity in vitro.
BHMT2, encoded by the BHMT2 gene in Homo sapiens, plays a critical role in homocysteine metabolism by catalyzing the conversion of homocysteine to methionine using S-methylmethionine as a methyl donor. This enzymatic activity is vital for regulating homocysteine levels, which is significant for understanding metabolic pathways related to cardiovascular health and methylation processes. The provided fragment retains the functional domain necessary for studying these specific biochemical interactions.
