What The Enzyme Does

COMT is represented as a SAMe-consuming enzyme. The current terrain model tracks how COMT activity changes relative methyl-donor demand.

Gene

What The Variants Change

The Phase 1A genotype control covers COMT Val158Met with qualitative residual-activity states.

COMT Val158Met

wt

100% modeled activity

het

72% modeled activity

hom

45% modeled activity

Downstream Consequences

  • Lower modeled COMT activity reduces relative SAMe consumption pressure.
  • COMT is interpreted as one consumer in a wider methylation context, not a stand-alone behavioral prediction.
  • The current model does not infer medication, supplement, or psychiatric treatment recommendations.
