Research Backgrounds

Function:

Catalyzes the O-methylation, and thereby the inactivation, of catecholamine neurotransmitters and catechol hormones. Also shortens the biological half-lives of certain neuroactive drugs, like L-DOPA, alpha-methyl DOPA and isoproterenol.

PTMs:

The N-terminus is blocked.

Subcellular Location:

Cytoplasm.

Cell membrane>Single-pass type II membrane protein>Extracellular side.

Extracellular region or secreted Cytosol Plasma membrane Cytoskeleton Lysosome Endosome Peroxisome ER Golgi apparatus Nucleus Mitochondrion Manual annotation Automatic computational assertionSubcellular location
Tissue Specificity:

Brain, liver, placenta, lymphocytes and erythrocytes.

Family&Domains:

Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. Cation-dependent O-methyltransferase family.

Figure 6| Arsenite exposure results in the dopaminergic transmission deficits in mice.After treating of mice with 0.5 mg/L, 5 mg/L and 50 mg/L arsenite for 6 months, the cerebral cortices of mice were collected and lysed for western blot analysis. The protein expressions of key regulators in dopamine synthesis (tyrosine hydroxylase,TH), transport (dopamine transporter, DAT),decompose (catecholamine-O-methyltransferase, COMT) as well as the dopamine receptors on the post-synaptic membrane (DRD1, DRD2, DRD3, DRD4 and DRD5) were detected.
