Descriptor English: Betaine-Homocysteine S-Methyltransferase
Descriptor Spanish: Betaína-Homocisteína S-Metiltransferasa
Descriptor betaína-homocisteína S-metiltransferasa
Scope note: Metaloenzima con ZINC que cataliza la transferencia de un grupo metilo de la BETAÍNA a la HOMOCISTEÍNA para producir dimetilglicina y METIONINA, respectivamente. Esta enzima es miembro de la familia de las METILTRANSFERASAS dependientes del ZINC que utilizan TIOLES o selenoles como aceptores de metilo.
