Summary: Predicted to enable N-methyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in methylation. Located in striated muscle dense body and striated muscle myosin thick filament. Is expressed in body wall musculature; intestine; pharynx; and reproductive system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in abdominal aortic aneurysm. Orthologous to human NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

Study reports an important role for N-methyl-transferase (NNMT) in regulation of autophagy during aging, where high neuronal ANMT-1 (the C. elegans NNMT ortholog) activity induces autophagy via NPRL-2, which maintains neuronal function in old wild type animals and various disease models, also affecting longevity.
