TAIR Computational Description | S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferases superfamily protein;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent phosphoethanolamine N-methyltransferase whose expression is responsive to both phosphate (Pi) and phosphite (Phi) in roots. It catalyzes the three sequential P-base methylation of phosphoethanolamine to phosphocholine. Homologous biochemical function to NMT1 (At3g18000). Double mutants of NMT1 and NMT3 are defective in leaf, root, flower, seed, and pollen development. |
