General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from AdoMet to trivalent arsenicals producing methylated and dimethylated arsenicals. It methylates arsenite to form methylarsonate, Me-AsO3H2, which is reduced by methylarsonate reductase to methylarsonite, Me-As(OH)2. Methylarsonite is also a substrate and it is converted into the much less toxic compound dimethylarsinate (cacodylate), Me2As(O)-OH By similarity.

Catalytic activity

S-adenosyl-L-methionine + arsenite = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + methylarsonate.

S-adenosyl-L-methionine + methylarsonite = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + dimethylarsinate.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily.
