Crystal structure of Human soluble catechol O-methyltransferase in complex with 3,5-dinitrocatechol and S-adensoyl-L-methionineCrystal structure of Human soluble catechol O-methyltransferase in complex with 3,5-dinitrocatechol and S-adensoyl-L-methionine
Structural highlights
FunctionCOMT_HUMAN 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. See Also |
