==CATECHOL O-METHYLTRANSFERASE==
-
Catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT, EC 2.1.1.6) is important in the, central nervous system because it metabolizes catecholamine, neurotransmitters such as dopamine. The enzyme catalyses the transfer of, the methyl group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine (AdoMet) to one hydroxyl, group of catechols. COMT also inactivates catechol-type compounds such as, L-DOPA. With selective inhibitors of COMT in combination with L-DOPA, a, new principle has been realized in the therapy of Parkinson's disease., Here we solve the atomic structure of COMT to 2.0 A resolution, which, provides new insights into the mechanism of the methyl transfer reaction., The co-enzyme-binding domain is strikingly similar to that of an, AdoMet-dependent DNA methylase, indicating that all AdoMet methylases may, have a common structure.

== Function ==
 +
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/COMT_RAT COMT_RAT] 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.
