S-methylation of drugs containing thiol-moieties often alters their activity and results in detoxification. Historically, scientists attributed methylation of exogenous aliphatic and phenolic thiols to a putative S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM)-dependent membrane-associated enzyme referred to as thiol methyltransferase (TMT). This putative TMT appeared to have a broad substrate specificity and methylated the thiol metabolite of spironolactone, mertansine, ziprasidone, captopril, and the active metabolites of the thienopyridine prodrugs, clopidogrel, and prasugrel. Despite TMT's role in the S-methylation of clinically relevant drugs, the enzyme(s) responsible for this activity remained unknown. We recently identified methyltransferase-like protein 7B (METTL7B) as an alkyl thiol methyltransferase. METTL7B is an endoplasmic reticulum-associated protein with similar biochemical properties and substrate specificity to the putative TMT. Yet, the historic TMT inhibitor 2,3-dichloro-α-methylbenzylamine (DCMB) did not inhibit METTL7B, indicating that multiple enzymes contribute to TMT activity. Here we report that methyltransferase-like protein 7A (METTL7A), an uncharacterized member of the METTL7 family, is also a SAM-dependent thiol methyltransferase. METTL7A exhibits similar biochemical properties to METTL7B and putative TMT, including inhibition by DCMB (IC50 = 1.17 μM). Applying quantitative proteomics to human liver microsomes and gene modulation experiments in HepG2 and HeLa cells, we determined that TMT activity correlates closely with METTL7A and METTL7B protein levels. Furthermore, purification of a novel His-GST-tagged recombinant protein and subsequent activity experiments prove that METTL7A can selectively methylate exogenous thiol-containing substrates, including 7α-thiospironolactone, dithiothreitol, 4-chlorothiophenol, and mertansine. We conclude that the METTL7 family encodes for two enzymes, METTL7A and METTL7B, which are now renamed thiol methyltransferase 1A (TMT1A) and thiol methyltransferase 1B (TMT1B), respectively, that are responsible for thiol methylation activity in human liver microsomes. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: We identified methyltransferase-like protein 7A (thiol methyltransferase 1A) and methyltransferase-like protein 7B (thiol methyltransferase 1B) as the enzymes responsible for the microsomal alkyl thiol methyltransferase (TMT) activity. These are the first two enzymes directly associated with microsomal TMT activity. S-methylation of commonly prescribed thiol-containing drugs alters their pharmacological activity and/or toxicity, and identifying the enzymes responsible for this activity will improve our understanding of the drug metabolism and pharmacokinetic (DMPK) properties of alkyl- or phenolic thiol-containing therapeutics.
