Application

EC Number Application Comment Organism
2.1.1.5 medicine upregulation of BHMT may indicate an increased choline requirement in the diabetic rat Rattus norvegicus
2.1.1.20 medicine diabetes increases the activity and abundance of GNMT, lack of dietary folate results in the highest activity of GNMT in diabetic rats without the abundance of the protein being altered Rattus norvegicus

Inhibitors
