Methylamine—glutamate N-methyltransferase

Methylamine-glutamate N-methyltransferase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

The two substrates of this enzyme are methylamine and L-glutamic acid. Its products are ammonia and N-methyl-L-glutamic acid.

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring one-carbon group methyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is methylamine:-glutamate N-methyltransferase. Other names in common use include N-methylglutamate synthase, and methylamine-glutamate methyltransferase. This enzyme participates in methane metabolism.
