FieldValue
NameBotryococcene C-methyltransferase
EC_number2.1.1.263

Botryococcene C-methyltransferase (, TMT-3) is an enzyme with systematic name S-adenosyl-L-methionine:botryococcene C-methyltransferase.

Function

This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction:

: 2 S-adenosyl-L-methionine + C30 botryococcene \rightleftharpoons 2 S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 3,20-dimethyl-1,2,21,22-tetradehydro-2,3,20,21-tetrahydrobotryococcene (overall reaction) :(1a) S-adenosyl-L-methionine + C30 botryococcene \rightleftharpoons S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 3-methyl-1,2-didehydro-2,3-dihydrobotryococcene :(1b) S-adenosyl-L-methionine + 3-methyl-1,2-didehydro-2,3-dihydrobotryococcene \rightleftharpoons S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 3,20-dimethyl-1,2,21,22-tetradehydro-2,3,20,21-tetrahydrobotryococcene :(2a) S-adenosyl-L-methionine + C30 botryococcene \rightleftharpoons S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 20-methyl-21,22-didehydro-20,21-dihydrobotryococcene :(2b) S-adenosyl-L-methionine + 20-methyl-21,22-didehydro-20,21-dihydrobotryococcene \rightleftharpoons S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 3,20-dimethyl-1,2,21,22-tetradehydro-2,3,20,21-tetrahydrobotryococcene

This enzyme is isolated from the green alga Botryococcus braunii BOT22.
