EC 2.1.1.101     
Accepted name: macrocin O-methyltransferase
Reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + macrocin = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + tylosin
For diagram of tylosin biosynthesis, click here
Other name(s): macrocin methyltransferase; S-adenosyl-L-methionine-macrocin O-methyltransferase; MOMT (ambiguous); tylF (gene name)
Systematic name: S-adenosyl-L-methionine:macrocin 3′′′-O-methyltransferase
Comments: Requires Mg2+, Mn2+ or Co2+. The 3-hydroxy group of the 2-O-methyl-6-deoxy-D-allose moiety in the macrolide antibiotic macrosin acts as methyl acceptor, generating tylosin, another macrolide antibiotic. Isolated from the bacterium Streptomyces fradiae. Not identical with EC 2.1.1.102, demethylmacrocin O-methyltransferase.
