Human indole(ethyl)amine-N-methyltransferase (hINMT) catalyzed methylation of tryptamine, dimethylsulfide and dimethylselenide is enhanced under reducing conditions - A comparison between 254C and 254F, two common hINMT variants.
Phenylalanine and cysteine comprise common miss-sense variants (i.e., single nucleotide polymorphisms [SNPs]) at amino acid position 254 of the human indole(ethyl)amine-N-methyltransferase (hINMT). The phenylalanine variant, which occurs in linkage disequilibrium with two 3' UTR SNPs, has been...
