Amine N-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.49), also called indolethylamine N-methyltransferase, and thioether S-methyltransferase, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the INMT gene. It is ubiquitously present in non-neural tissues and catalyzes the N-methylation of tryptamine and structurally related compounds. It can also catalyze the methylation of thioether and selenoether compounds, although the physiological significance of this biotransformation is not yet known. The general reaction taking place is: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + an amine ⇌ S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + a methylated amine
