Background

PNMT (Phenylethanolamine N-MethylTransferase; also PENT and Noradrenaline N-methyltransferase) is a monomeric, 30-34 kDa cytoplasmic member of the NNMT/PNMT/TEMT family of enzymes. It has limited expression, being found in Leydig, skeletal muscle and B cells, adrenal chromaffin cells, select adrenergic neurons of the vagus nerve, periventricular grey and reticular formation, and specialized adrenalin-containing cells contained within the heart. PNMT converts noradrenalin into adrenalin by transferring a methyl group from AdoMet to the terminal amine group of noradrenalin. Human PNMT is 282 amino acids (aa) in length and contains an active enzyme site between aa 14-279. Full length human PNMT1 shares 81% aa sequence identity with mouse PNMT.
