Summary: Enables glycine hydroxymethyltransferase activity. Involved in dTMP biosynthetic process and tetrahydrofolate interconversion. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain ventricular layer; genitourinary system; liver and biliary system; and skin.

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.
