Summary
Predicted to enable catechol O-methyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in catecholamine catabolic process; developmental process; and dopamine metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within catecholamine metabolic process and methylation. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including digestive system; gill; heart; immune system; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including autoimmune disease of skin and connective tissue (multiple); cognitive disorder (multiple); drug dependence (multiple); reproductive organ cancer (multiple); and withdrawal disorder (multiple). Orthologous to human COMT (catechol-O-methyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jan 2025]

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.
