Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: This gene encodes a protein belonging to the spermidine/spermin synthase family and catalyzes the production of spermine from spermidine. Pseudogenes of this gene are located on chromosomes 1, 5, 6 and X. Mutations in this gene cause an X-linked intellectual disability called Snyder-Robinson Syndrome (SRS). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017].
  • UniProt Summary: Catalyzes the production of spermine from spermidine and decarboxylated S-adenosylmethionine (dcSAM).
