ATPSCKMT Gene

Name ATP synthase c subunit lysine N-methyltransferase
Description Enables protein-lysine N-methyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including peptidyl-lysine trimethylation; positive regulation of proton-transporting ATP synthase activity, rotational mechanism; and positive regulation of sensory perception of pain. Located in mitochondrial crista. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]
Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n ATPSCKMT (formerly known as FAM173B) is a mitochondrial lysine‐specific methyltransferase that catalyzes the trimethylation of a specific lysine residue on the c‐subunit of mitochondrial ATP synthase (ATPSc). This targeted post‐translational modification is crucial for proper mitochondrial function, influencing energy metabolism and potentially affecting translation dynamics. Functional studies in mammalian cells show that loss of ATPSCKMT activity (via gene knockout) results in the abrogation of this trimethylation mark, underscoring that its methyltransferase activity is indispensable for modifying ATPSc. In addition, the abnormal function or expression of ATPSCKMT has been linked to altered mitochondrial properties that may contribute to the pathophysiology of conditions such as chronic pain. Collectively, these findings establish ATPSCKMT as a key regulator of mitochondrial bioenergetics through its specific modification of ATPSc."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_fs", "start_ref": "1", "end_ref": "3"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n "}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Jędrzej M Małecki, Hanneke L D M Willemen, Rita Pinto, et al.
