    Summary
    Enables nicotinamide N-methyltransferase activity. Involved in nicotinamide metabolic process; positive regulation of gluconeogenesis; and positive regulation of protein deacetylation. Acts upstream of or within methylation. Located in cytosol. Is expressed in brown fat. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in abdominal aortic aneurysm. Orthologous to human NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

    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.
