protein N-terminal methyltransferase

inquiry

Cat No.

EXWM-1847

Description

This enzyme methylates the N-terminus of target proteins containing the N-terminal motif [Ala/Pro/Ser]-Pro-Lys after the initiator L-methionine is cleaved. When the terminal amino acid is L-proline, the enzyme catalyses two successive methylations of its α-amino group. When the first amino acid is either L-alanine or L-serine, the enzyme catalyses three successive methylations.The Pro-Lys in positions 2-3 cannot be exchanged for other amino acids.
