Pcmt1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables protein-L-isoaspartate (D-aspartate) O-methyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within protein methylation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including basolateral plasma membrane; brush border membrane; and perikaryon. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Orthologous to human PCMT1 (protein-L-isoaspartate (D-aspartate) O-methyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Pcmt1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
