CC -!- FUNCTION: Involved in the biosynthesis of pyridine alkaloid natural
CC products, leading mainly to the production of anabasine, anatabine,
CC nicotine and nornicotine, effective deterrents against herbivores with
CC antiparasitic and pesticide properties (neurotoxins); nornicotine
CC serves as the precursor in the synthesis of the carcinogen compound N'-
CC nitrosonornicotine (NNN) (PubMed:8038607, PubMed:31276744,
CC PubMed:34095742). Methyltransferase that mediates the conversion of
CC putrescine to N-methylputrescine (PubMed:8038607, PubMed:9620262).
CC Promotes leaves ripening (PubMed:34095742).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:31276744, ECO:0000269|PubMed:34095742,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:8038607, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9620262}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=putrescine + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = H(+) + N-
CC methylputrescine + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:15037,
CC ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:57856, ChEBI:CHEBI:58039,
CC ChEBI:CHEBI:59789, ChEBI:CHEBI:326268; EC=2.1.1.53;

CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:8038607, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9620262};
CC -!- PATHWAY: Alkaloid biosynthesis; nicotine biosynthesis.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8038607}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Predominantly expressed in roots.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10598105, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8038607}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Down-regulated by auxin (PubMed:8038607). Accumulates upon
CC the removal of flower heads and young leaves (PubMed:8038607,
CC PubMed:10598105). Triggered by jasmonic acid (MeJA) (PubMed:10965939,
CC PubMed:15604714, PubMed:9869416). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10598105,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:10965939, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15604714,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:8038607, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9869416}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Accumulation of anatabine at the expense of
CC nicotine (PubMed:14756309). Plants suppressed for PMT1, PMT2, PMT3 and
CC PMT4 exhibit strongly reduced nicotine levels but accumulate polyamines
CC in roots, and have an impaired leaf maturation phenotype at harvest
CC (PubMed:34095742). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14756309,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:34095742}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase
CC superfamily. Putrescine methyltransferase family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-
CC ProRule:PRU00947}.
