Calmodulin-lysine N-methyltransferase

Calmodulin-lysine N-methyltransferase

) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

:S-adenosyl-L-methionine + calmodulin L-lysine ightleftharpoons S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + calmodulin N6-methyl-L-lysine

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are S-adenosyl methionine and calmodulin L-lysine, whereas its two products are S-adenosylhomocysteine and calmodulin N6-methyl-L-lysine.

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring one-carbon group methyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is S-adenosyl-L-methionine:calmodulin-L-lysine N6-methyltransferase. Other names in common use include S-adenosylmethionine:calmodulin (lysine) N-methyltransferase, and S-adenosyl-L-methionine:calmodulin-L-lysine 6-N-methyltransferase. This enzyme participates in lysine degradation.
