1 FMO3 is responsible for the degradation of trimethylamine (TMA) in vivo. trimethylamine flavin containing monooxygenase 3 Gallus gallus
2 FMO3 is responsible for the degradation of trimethylamine (TMA) in vivo. trimethylamine flavin containing monooxygenase 3 Gallus gallus
3 Loss-of-function mutations in FMO3 gene can result in defective TMA N-oxygenation, giving rise to disorder known as "fish-odour syndrome" in human, as well as the fishy off-flavor in cow milk and chicken eggs. trimethylamine flavin containing monooxygenase 3 Gallus gallus
4 Nine SNPs were detected in the coding sequence of quail FMO3 gene, including a nonsense mutation (Q319X) which was significantly associated with the elevated TMA content in quail egg yolks. trimethylamine flavin containing monooxygenase 3 Gallus gallus
