IPR006223

Description

IPR006223 is a Glycine cleavage system T protein.

<p>The glycine cleavage system (GCS) is a multienzyme system composed of proteins P, H, T, and L, that catalyses the reversible oxidation of glycine. The T protein is an aminomethyl transferase [ec:2.1.2.10] that catalyses the following reaction:</p> <p> <reaction> (6S)-tetrahydrofolate + S-aminomethyldihydrolipoylprotein = (6R)-5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate + NH<sub>3</sub> + dihydrolipoylprotein </reaction> </p> <p>The glycine cleavage system is found in bacteria and the mitochondria of eukaryotes. Mutations in the human T-protein gene are known to cause nonketotic hyperglycinemia [[cite:PUB00069711]].</p>
