Function

NTM1A_HUMAN Distributive alpha-N-methyltransferase that methylates the N-terminus of target proteins containing the N-terminal motif [Ala/Pro/Ser]-Pro-Lys when the initiator Met is cleaved. Specifically catalyzes mono-, di- or tri-methylation of exposed alpha-amino group of Ala or Ser residue in the [Ala/Ser]-Pro-Lys motif and mono- or di-methylation of Pro in the Pro-Pro-Lys motif. Some of the substrates may be primed by METTL11B-mediated monomethylation. Responsible for the N-terminal methylation of KLHL31, MYL2, MYL3, RB1, RCC1, RPL23A and SET. Required during mitosis for normal bipolar spindle formation and chromosome segregation via its action on RCC1.[1] [2] [3]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Protein N-terminal methyltransferases (NTMTs) catalyze the methylation of the alpha-N-terminal amines of proteins starting with an X-P-K/R motif. NTMT1 has been implicated in various cancers and in aging, implying its role as a potential therapeutic target. Through structural modifications of a lead NTMT1 inhibitor, BM30, we designed and synthesized a diverse set of inhibitors to probe the NTMT1 active site. The incorporation of a naphthyl group at the N-terminal region and an ortho-aminobenzoic amide at the C-terminal region of BM30 generates the top cell-potent inhibitor DC541, demonstrating increased activity on both purified NTMT1 (IC50 of 0.34 +/- 0.02 muM) and the cellular alpha-N-terminal methylation level of regulator of chromosome condensation 1 (RCC1, IC50 value of 30 muM) in human colorectal cancer HT29 cells. Furthermore, DC541 exhibits over 300-fold selectivity to several methyltransferases. This study points out the direction for the development of more cell-potent inhibitors for NTMT1.
