Catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT), derived from porcine liver, is a methyltransferase that facilitates the magnesium-dependent transfer of methyl groups from S-adenosyl methionine to the hydroxyl group of dopamine, resulting in the formation of 3-methoxytyramine. This enzyme exists in two forms: a soluble form (S-COMT) and a membrane-bound form (MB-COMT). COMT plays a critical role in regulating the levels of key neurotransmitters, including epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine, making it essential for research related to neuropharmacology and psychiatric disorders.
