Summary
Enables thiopurine S-methyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in xenobiotic metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within methylation. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in metanephros. Used to study thiopurine S-methyltransferase deficiency. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acute lymphoblastic leukemia; alopecia; leukopenia; and thiopurine S-methyltransferase deficiency. Orthologous to human TPMT (thiopurine S-methyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
