basic FUNCTION
  • with METTL21A, EEF1AKMT3, METTL21C methylates chaperones involved in the etiology of both myopathy and inclusion body myositis with Paget's disease
  • is a skeletal muscle-specific lysine methyltransferase
  • METTL21C is an important modulator of protein degradation in skeletal muscle under both normal and enhanced protein breakdown conditions

    protein
  • might exert its bone-muscle pleiotropic function via the regulation of the NFKB1 signaling pathway, which is critical for bone and muscle homeostasis
  • METTL21C trimethylates VCP on the Lys315 residue and loss of this modification reduced VCP hexamer formation and ATPase activity
  • HSPA8 is a METTL21C substrate suggesting that nonhistone methylation has a physiological function in protein stabilization
  • role for the METTL21C-AARS1 axis in the regulation of protein synthesis in muscle tissue
