COMPT

As of November 2026, COMPT has been mentioned in one podcast episode on PowerfulJRE (Jun 2024). A gene discussed in the context of methylation and health.

Catechol-O-methyltransferase is one of several enzymes that degrade catecholamines, catechol estrogens, and various drugs and substances having a catechol structure. In humans, catechol-O-methyltransferase protein is encoded by the COMT gene. Two isoforms of COMT are produced: the soluble short form (S-COMT) and the membrane bound long form (MB-COMT). As the regulation of catecholamines is impaired in a number of medical conditions, several pharmaceutical drugs target COMT to alter its activity
