Description | This family represents Damage-control phosphatases ARMT1, including YMR027W from S. cerevisiae ( ) [ ] and human ARMT1 (C6orf211, previously known as Protein-glutamate O-methyltransferase) []. Despite a first characterization of human ARMT1 as a carboxyl methyltransferase, a second study suggests that these proteins are metal-dependent phosphatases implicated in metabolite damage-control, whose function is to limit potentially harmful buildups of phosphometabolites [], in processes termed "damage pre-emption"or "housecleaning". | Name | Damage-control phosphatase ARMT1 |
Short Name | ARMT1 | Type | Family |
