EC 2.1.1.164 Details
EC number
2.1.1.164
Accepted name
demethylrebeccamycin-D-glucose O-methyltransferase
Reaction
4′-demethylrebeccamycin + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = rebeccamycin + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine
Other name(s)
RebM
Systematic name
S-adenosyl-L-methionine:demethylrebeccamycin-D-glucose O-methyltransferase
Comment
Catalyses the last step in the biosynthesis of rebeccamycin, an indolocarbazole alkaloid produced by the bacterium Lechevalieria aerocolonigenes. The enzyme is able to use a wide variety substrates, tolerating variation on the imide heterocycle, deoxygenation of the sugar moiety, and even indolocarbazole glycoside anomers [1]. The enzyme is a member of the general acid/base-dependent O-methyltransferase family [2].
