Protein-L-isoaspartate(D-aspartate) O-methyltransferase
BE0001144ProteinHumansPCMT1
Initiates the repair of damaged proteins by catalyzing methyl esterification of L-isoaspartyl and D-aspartyl residues produced by spontaneous isomerization and racemization of L-aspartyl and L-asparaginyl residues in aging peptides and proteins (PubMed:3167043, PubMed:6469980). It is acted on by 1 drug in DrugBank.
