ENTRY       EC 2.1.1.14
NAME        5-Methyltetrahydropteroyltriglutamate--homocysteine
            $ S-methyltransferase
            Tetrahydropteroyltriglutamate methyltransferase
CLASS       Transferases
            Transferring one-carbon groups
            Methyltransferases
SYSNAME     5-Methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamate:L-homocysteine
            S-methyltransferase
REACTION    5-Methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamate + L-Homocysteine =
            Tetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamate + L-Methionine
SUBSTRATE   5-Methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamate
            L-Homocysteine
PRODUCT     Tetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamate
            L-Methionine
