(Phosphatase 2A protein)-leucine-carboxy methyltransferase

Class of enzymes a class of enzymes specific enzyme found, for example, in humans Leucine carboxyl methyltransferase 1 (phosphatase 2A protein)-leucine-carboxy methyltransferase 2.1.1.233 (phosphatase 2A protein)-leucine-carboxy methyltransferase (2.1.1.233) is an enzyme with systematic name S-adenosyl-L-methionine:(phosphatase 2A protein)-leucine O-methyltransferase.
