S-adenosyl-L-methionine:tricetin 3',5'-O-dimethyltransferase
The enzymes from Oryza sativa (ROMT-15 and ROMT-17) catalyses the stepwise methylation of tricetin to its 3'-mono- and 3',5'-dimethyl ethers. In contrast with the wheat enzyme (EC 2.1.1.169, tricetin 3',4',5'-O-trimethyltransferase), tricetin dimethyl ether is not converted to its 3',4',5'-trimethylated ether derivative [1]. The enzymes from Hordeum vulgare (HvOMT1) and from Zea mays (ZmOMT1) form the 3',5'-dimethyl derivative as the major product [2].
