Background
This gene encodes an enzyme localized to the mitochondrial matrix which catalyzes the oxidative demethylation of sarcosine. This enzyme is distinct from another mitochondrial matrix enzyme, dimethylglycine dehydrogenase, which catalyzes a reaction resulting in the formation of sarcosine. Mutations in this gene are associated with sarcosinemia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008],
Function
catalytic activity:Sarcosine + acceptor + H(2)O = glycine + formaldehyde + reduced acceptor.,cofactor:Binds 1 FAD covalently per monomer.,disease:Defects in SARDH are a ause of sarcosinemia [MIM:268900]. Sarcosinemia is a metabolic disorder characterized by an increased concentration of sarcosine in plasma and urine due to sarcosine dehydrogenase deficiency. Prevalence has been estimated at 1:28'000 to 1:350'000 in newborn screening programs. Sarcosinemia is most probably a benign condition without significant clinical problems. It is transmitted in an autosomal recessive manner.,pathway:Amine and polyamine degradation; sarcosine degradation; formaldehyde and glycine from sarcosine: step 1/1.,similarity:Belongs to the gcvT family.,
