Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** AHCYL2 is a gene that shares structural and functional similarities with SAHH, suggesting a conserved evolutionary origin. The gene is highly expressed in various cell types, including syncytiotrophoblast cells, cortical cells of the adrenal gland, Purkinje cells, and mature astrocytes. These cells are involved in different physiological processes, such as fetal development, stress response, and neurotransmission, underscoring the potential importance of AHCYL2 in these contexts. Notably, AHCYL2 is also expressed in cells involved in the transport of small molecules, including inorganic cations, amino acids, and oligopeptides, highlighting its role in maintaining cellular homeostasis. **Pathways and Functions:** AHCYL2 is involved in the regulation of the one-carbon metabolic pathway, which is essential for the synthesis of nucleotides, amino acids, and other biomolecules. This pathway is crucial for various cellular processes, including DNA synthesis, cell growth, and differentiation. AHCYL2 also plays a role in the transport of small molecules across cellular membranes, including inorganic cations, amino acids, and oligopeptides. This function is mediated through its involvement in the S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) cycle, which is a key regulatory pathway in one-carbon metabolism. The S-adenosylmethionine cycle is a critical metabolic pathway that involves the conversion of homocysteine to methionine, with AHCYL2 as a key player. This cycle is essential for the synthesis of SAM, which is a crucial cofactor for various enzymes involved in one-carbon metabolism. AHCYL2's involvement in this cycle suggests that it plays a regulatory role in the synthesis of SAM, which in turn affects various cellular processes. **Clinical Significance:** AHCYL2's involvement in one-carbon metabolism and small molecule transport has significant implications for human health. Dysregulation of the one-carbon metabolic pathway has been implicated in various diseases, including cancer, neurological disorders, and cardiovascular disease. AHCYL2's role in maintaining cellular homeostasis also suggests that dysregulation of this gene may contribute to various diseases, including those involving cellular stress and damage. Furthermore, AHCYL2's expression in cells involved in fetal development and stress response suggests that its dysregulation may contribute to developmental disorders and stress-related diseases. The identification of AHCYL2 as a potential therapeutic target for these diseases highlights the need for further research into its functions and mechanisms of action. In conclusion, AHCYL2 is a gene that plays a critical role in the regulation of one-carbon metabolism and small molecule transport. Its involvement in these processes has significant implications for human health, and its dysregulation may contribute to various diseases. Further research into the functions and mechanisms of action of AHCYL2 is necessary to fully appreciate its significance and potential therapeutic applications.
