FUNCTION: Produces melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) from N-acetylserotonin. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + N-acetylserotonin = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + melatonin. PATHWAY: Aromatic compound metabolism; melatonin biosynthesis; melatonin from serotonin: step 1/2. ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS: Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=3; Name=1; IsoId=P46597-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; IsoId=P46597-2; Sequence=VSP_004285; Name=3; IsoId=P46597-3; Sequence=VSP_004284; Note=Includes part of a LINE-1 element. Ref.1 (AAA58582/AAA58583/AAA75290), Ref.2 (AAA17020) and Ref.3 (BAG37430) sequences are in conflict in position: 190:W->R; TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in the pineal gland (at protein level). In the retina, very low expression is found at the mRNA level (PubMed:7989373), and not at the protein level (PubMed:8574683). INDUCTION: By all-trans-, 9-cis- and 13-cis-retinoic acid and by serum treatment, following starvation, in the retinoblastoma cell line Y79. MISCELLANEOUS: The gene encoding for this protein is located in the pseudoautosomal region 1 (PAR1) of X and Y chromosomes. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the methyltransferase superfamily.
