Record overview

MGPD IDMGP005031
Gene ID29958
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namedimethylglycine dehydrogenase
Gene Symbol DMGDH
SynonymsDMGDHD; ME2GLYDH;
Alternate namesdimethylglycine dehydrogenase, mitochondrial;
Chromosome5
Map Location5q14.1
EC Number1.5.8.4
SummaryThis gene encodes an enzyme involved in the catabolism of choline, catalyzing the oxidative demethylation of dimethylglycine to form sarcosine. The enzyme is found as a monomer in the mitochondrial matrix, and uses flavin adenine dinucleotide and folate as cofactors. Mutation in this gene causes dimethylglycine dehydrogenase deficiency, characterized by a fishlike body odor, chronic muscle fatigue, and elevated levels of the muscle form of creatine kinase in serum. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
