epitope corresponding to amino acids 1-300 mapping at the N-terminus of cyt19 of mouse origin
Modification Notes
Formation of methylated metabolites is a critical step in the metabolism of inorganic arsenic. Arsenite methyltransferase (cyt19) is localized to the cytoplasm and operates in the transfer of a methyl group from AdoMet to trivalent arsenicals producing methylated and dimethylated arsenicals. It methylates arsenite to form methylarsonate which is reduced to methylarsonite. Methylarsonite acts as a substrate and is converted into a much less toxic compound dimethylarsinate. cyt19 is highly expressed in liver. Inherited variation in cyt19 may contribute to variation in arsenic metabolism and possibly arsenic-dependent carcinogenesis in humans.
