Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.5.0)
Enables betaine-homocysteine S-methyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within methionine biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in extracellular exosome and nucleus. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including brain ventricle and choroid plexus; early conceptus; gonad; liver; and male reproductive gland or organ.
