This gene encodes an enzyme that N-methylates indoles such as tryptamine. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the downstream FAM188B (family with sequence similarity 188, member B) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]. * **UniProt Summary**: Functions as thioether S-methyltransferase and is active with a variety of thioethers and the corresponding selenium and tellurium compounds, including 3-methylthiopropionaldehyde, dimethyl selenide, dimethyl telluride, 2-methylthioethylamine, 2- methylthioethanol, methyl-n-propyl sulfide and diethyl sulfide. Plays an important role in the detoxification of selenium compounds (By similarity). Catalyzes the N-methylation of tryptamine and structurally related compounds. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10552930}. |NNMT PNMT TEMT| |thioether S-methyltransferase activity| |S-adenosyl-L-methionine:beta-alanine N-methyltransferase activity| |amine N-methyltransferase activity| |amine metabolic process| |methylation| |response to toxic substance| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp111|R-DABN 8μM R03 exp111]]|1.98| |[[:results:exp93|DABN racemic mixture R03 exp93]]|2.39| |[[:results:exp208|Vinblastine 0.015μM R05 exp208]]|2.39| |[[:results:exp33|Rotenone 2μM R00 exp33]]|2.9| |[[:results:exp94|Nocodazole 0.1μM R03 exp94]]|2.93| |[[:results:exp256|HMS-I1 10μM R06 exp256]]|3| |[[:results:exp244|SB743921 0.001μM R05 exp244]]|3.76| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
