===CRYSTAL STRUCTURE AND MECHANISM OF L-ARGININE: GLYCINE AMIDINOTRANSFERASE: A MITOCHONDRIAL ENZYME INVOLVED IN CREATINE BIOSYNTHESIS=== | |||

=== | ==Disease== | ||
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/GATM_HUMAN GATM_HUMAN]] Defects in GATM are the cause of arginine:glycine amidinotransferase deficiency (AGAT deficiency) [MIM:[http://omim.org/entry/612718 612718]]. AGAT deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by developmental delay/regression, mental retardation, severe disturbance of expressive and cognitive speech, and severe depletion of creatine/phosphocreatine in the brain. | |||
==Function== | |||
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/GATM_HUMAN GATM_HUMAN]] Catalyzes the biosynthesis of guanidinoacetate, the immediate precursor of creatine. Creatine plays a vital role in energy metabolism in muscle tissues. May play a role in embryonic and central nervous system development. May be involved in the response to heart failure by elevating local creatine synthesis.<ref>PMID:16820567</ref><ref>PMID:16125225</ref><ref>PMID:16614068</ref> | |||
