Also known as CYT19
Summary
AS3MT (arsenite methyltransferase, HGNC:17452) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 10q24.32, encoding Arsenite methyltransferase (Q9HBK9). Catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from AdoMet to trivalent arsenicals producing methylated and dimethylated arsenicals.
AS3MT catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine (AdoMet) to trivalent arsenical and may play a role in arsenic metabolism (Lin et al., 2002 [PubMed 11790780]).

Arsenite methyltransferase — Q9HBK9 (reviewed: Q9HBK9)
Alternative names: Methylarsonite methyltransferase, S-adenosyl-L-methionine:arsenic(III) methyltransferase
All UniProt accessions (1): Q9HBK9
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from AdoMet to trivalent arsenicals producing methylated and dimethylated arsenicals. It methylates arsenite to form methylarsonate, Me-AsO(3)H(2), which is reduced by methylarsonate reductase to methylarsonite, Me-As(OH)2. Methylarsonite is also a substrate and it is converted into the much less toxic compound dimethylarsinate (cacodylate), Me(2)As(O)-OH.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cytosol.
Miscellaneous. Devoid of methyltransferase activity.
Similarity. Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily. Arsenite methyltransferase family.
