In enzymology, a glycine hydroxymethyltransferase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction :5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate + glycine + H2O tetrahydrofolate + L-serine The 3 substrates of this enzyme are 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate, glycine, and H2O, whereas its two products are tetrahydrofolate and L-serine. This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases that transfer one-carbon groups, specifically the hydroxymethyl-, formyl- and related transferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate:glycine hydroxymethyltransferase. Other names in common use include serine aldolase, threonine aldolase, serine hydroxymethylase, serine hydroxymethyltransferase, allothreonine aldolase, L-serine hydroxymethyltransferase, L-threonine aldolase, serine hydroxymethyltransferase, and serine transhydroxymethylase. This enzyme participates in 5 metabolic pathways: glycine, serine and threonine metabolism, lysine degradation, cyanoamino acid metabolism, one carbon pool by folate, and methane metabolism. It employs one cofactor, pyridoxal phosphate. ==Structural studies== As of late 2007, 18 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , and . 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Glycine hydroxymethyltransferase」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
