Additional Info
| Tissue Specificity | Brain, liver, placenta, lymphocytes and erythrocytes. |
| Post Translational Modifications | The N-terminus is blocked. |
| Function | Catalyzes the O-methylation, and thereby the inactivation, of catecholamine neurotransmitters and catechol hormones. Also shortens the biological half-lives of certain neuroactive drugs, like L-DOPA, alpha-methyl DOPA and isoproterenol. |
