Involved In

This protein is involved in 3 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
amine metabolic processbiological processThe chemical reactions and pathways involving any organic compound that is weakly basic in character and contains an amino or a substituted amino group. Amines are called primary, secondary, or tertiary according to whether one, two, or three carbon atoms are attached to the nitrogen atom. [GOC:jl, ISBN:0198506732]
response to toxic substancebiological processAny process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a toxic stimulus. [GOC:lr]
methylationbiological processThe process in which a methyl group is covalently attached to a molecule. [GOC:mah]
