| Sysname |
S-adenosyl-L-methionine:phosphatidyl-N-methylethanolamine
N-methyltransferase |
| Reaction(IUBMB) |
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + phosphatidyl-N-methylethanolamine =
S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + phosphatidyl-N-dimethylethanolamine
[RN:R03424] |
| Reaction(KEGG) |
R03424;
(other) R01320
 |
| Substrate |
S-adenosyl-L-methionine [CPD:C00019];
phosphatidyl-N-methylethanolamine [CPD:C01241] |
| Product |
S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine [CPD:C00021];
phosphatidyl-N-dimethylethanolamine [CPD:C04308] |
| Comment |
The enzyme also catalyses the transfer of a further methyl group,
producing phosphatidylcholine. |
