GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

PNMT (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

PENT

Description

Phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

The product of this gene catalyzes the last step of the catecholamine biosynthesis pathway, which methylates norepinephrine to form epinephrine (adrenaline). The enzyme also has beta-carboline 2N-methyltransferase activity. This gene is thought to play a key step in regulating epinephrine production. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]
