| Systematic name: | S-adenosyl-L-methionine:N-terminal-(A,P,S)PK-[protein] methyltransferase | ||||
| Comments: | 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 [1,2]. | ||||
