Domain Context

CATH Clusters

Superfamily Vaccinia Virus protein VP39
Functional Family Leucine carboxyl methyltransferase 1

Enzyme Information

2.1.1.233
[Phosphatase 2A protein]-leucine-carboxy methyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q9UIC8
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + [phosphatase 2A protein]-leucine = S-adenosyl- L-homocysteine + [phosphatase 2A protein]-leucine methyl ester.
-!- Methylates the C-terminal leucine of phosphatase 2A. -!- A key regulator of protein phosphatase 2A. -!- The methyl ester is hydrolyzed by EC 3.1.1.89. -!- Occurs mainly in the cytoplasm, Golgi region and late endosomes.
