Target
-
Function
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. -
Tissue specificity
Brain, liver, placenta, lymphocytes and erythrocytes. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the mammalian catechol-O-methyltransferase family. -
Post-translational
modificationsThe N-terminus is blocked. -
Cellular localization
Cytoplasm and Cell membrane. - Information by UniProt

Immunoprecipitation - Anti-COMT antibody (ab129504)ab129504 at 1 µg/ml staining COMT by WB, following immunoprecipitation of whole cell lysate from HeLa cells.
Lane 1; IP using ab129504 at 6 µg/mg lysate.
Lane 2; IP using control IgG.
1 mg of lysate was used for IP and 20% of IP was loaded. Detection utilised Chemiluminescence with a 10 second exposure.
