Thiol S-methyltransferase
- Thiol S-methyltransferase
In enzymology, a thiol S-methyltransferase (EC number|2.1.1.9) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
:S-adenosyl-L-methionine + a thiol S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + a thioether
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are S-adenosyl methionine and thiol, whereas its two products are S-adenosylhomocysteine and thioether.
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:thiol S-methyltransferase. Other names in common use include S-methyltransferase, thiol methyltransferase, and TMT. This enzyme participates in selenoamino acid metabolism.
