Prevalence of COMT Val158Met polymorphism in Eastern UP population.

Cellular and molecular biology (Noisy-le-Grand, France) - 31 Jul 2017

Kumar P, Yadav U, Rai V

Abstract excerpt

Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) is an abundant S-adenosylmethionine (SAM-)-dependent methyltransferase that methylates catechol compounds, including catecholamines and catecholestrogens.COMT gene located at chromosome 22q11.2 contains a functional polymorphism at codon 158(Val158Met), which has been related to psychiatric diseases and different types of cancer. COMT might affect tHcy levels because as a...
