| EC | 2.1.1.391 | ||
| Accepted name: | demethylgadusol O-methyltransferase | ||
| Reaction: | S-adenosyl-L-methionine + demethylgadusol = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + gadusol | ||
| Glossary: | demethylgadusol = (4R,5R)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one gadusol = (4R,5R)-3,4,5-trihydroxy-5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methoxycyclohex-2-en-1-one |
||
| Other name(s): | gadusol synthase; desmethyl gadusol O-methyltransferase | ||
| Systematic name: | S-adenosyl-L-methionine:demethylgadusol 2-O-methyltransferase | ||
| Comments: | The enzyme, present in egg-laying vertebrates, is involved in biosynthesis of the UV absorbing compound gadusol. It is a bifunctional enzyme that also catalyses EC 1.3.1.126, 2-epi-5-epi-valiolone dehydrogenase. | ||
