GATM Blocking Peptide(C-term)

Background:
This gene encodes a mitochondrial enzyme that belongs tothe amidinotransferase family. This enzyme is involved in creatinebiosynthesis, whereby it catalyzes the transfer of a guanido groupfrom L-arginine to glycine, resulting in guanidinoacetic acid, theimmediate precursor of creatine. Mutations in this gene causearginine:glycine amidinotransferase deficiency, an inborn error ofcreatine synthesis characterized by mental retardation, languageimpairment, and behavioral disorders.

Other Names:
Glycine amidinotransferase, mitochondrial, L-arginine:glycine amidinotransferase, Transamidinase, GATM, AGAT

Target/Specificity:
The synthetic peptide sequence is selected from aa 365-378 of HUMAN GATM
