(cytochrome c)-arginine N-methyltransferase

(cytochrome c)-arginine N-methyltransferase

In enzymology, a [cytochrome c] -arginine N-methyltransferase (EC number|2.1.1.124) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

:S-adenosyl-L-methionine + [cytochrome c] -arginine ightleftharpoons S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + [cytochrome c] -Nomega-methyl-arginine

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are S-adenosyl methionine and [cytochrome c-arginine] , whereas its two products are S-adenosylhomocysteine and [cytochrome c-Nomega-methyl-arginine] .

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: [cytochrome c] -arginine Nomega-methyltransferase. Other names in common use include S-adenosyl-L-methionine: [cytochrome c] -arginine, and omega-N-methyltransferase.
