In enzymology a 5-methyltetrahydropteroyltriglutamate—homocysteine S-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.14) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction5-methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamate + L-homocysteine tetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamate + L-methionineThus the two substrates of this enzyme are 5-methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamate and L-homocysteine whereas its two products are tetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamate and L-methionine.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases specifically those transferring one-carbon group methyltransferases.
