Enzyme Information
| 2.1.2.1 | Glycine hydroxymethyltransferase. based on mapping to UniProt P0A825 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate + glycine + H(2)O = tetrahydrofolate + L-serine. -!- Also catalyzes the reaction of glycine with acetaldehyde to form L-threonine, and with 4-trimethylammoniobutanal to form 3-hydroxy- N(6),N(6),N(6)-trimethyl-L-lysine. |
