Summaries
Gene Group (FlyBase)
PROTEIN CARBOXYL O-METHYLTRANSFERASES -
Protein carboxyl O-methyltransferases catalyze the transfer of a methyl group to a carboxyl group on a protein.
Protein Function (UniProtKB)
Catalyzes the methyl esterification of L-isoaspartyl and D-aspartyl residues in peptides and proteins that result from spontaneous decomposition of normal L-aspartyl and L-asparaginyl residues. It plays a role in the repair and/or degradation of damaged proteins.
