Summary
Predicted to enable adenosylhomocysteinase activity. Involved in S-adenosylhomocysteine catabolic process. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including embryonic/larval midgut primordium; gut section; larval muscle cell; mesoderm; and visceral mesoderm derivative. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in abdominal aortic aneurysm and hypermethioninemia with deficiency of S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase. Orthologous to human AHCY (adenosylhomocysteinase).
