EC | 2.1.1.397 | ||
Accepted name: | hydroxystrychnine O-methyltransferase | ||
Reaction: | S-adenosyl-L-methionine + 10-hydroxystrychnine = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + β-colubrine | ||
Glossary: | β-colubrine = 2-methoxystrychnidin-10-one = (4aR,5aS,8aR,13aS,15aS,15bR)-10-methoxy-4a,5,5a,7,8,13a,15,15a,15b,16-decahydro-2H-4,6-methanoindolo[3,2,1-ij]oxepino[2,3,4-de]pyrrolo[2,3-h]quinolin-14-one 10-hydroxystrychnine = 2-hydroxystrychnidin-10-one |
||
Systematic name: | S-adenosyl-L-methionine:hydroxystrychnine O-methyltransferase | ||
Comments: | The enzyme, isolated from the tree Strychnos nux-vomica, participates in the biosynthesis of brucine. It can methylate 10-hydroxystrychnine, and, with lower efficiency, 11-hydroxystrychnine and 11-demethylbrucine. | ||
