CAS Registry Number 146048-86-4;169277-48-9 (from EC 2.1.1.134)
Comments The enzyme from the rice bean Vigna umbellata (Fabaceae) is highly specific for S-adenosyl-L-methionine. The enzyme also methylates 1L-1,2,4/3,5-cyclohexanepentol, 2,4,6/3,5-pentahydroxycyclohexanone, D,L-2,3,4,6/5-pentacyclohexanone and 2,2′-anhydro-2-C-hydroxymethyl-myo-inositol, but at lower rates than that of myo-inositol.
Cofactor
History
Reactions S-adenosyl-L-methionine + myo-inositol = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 1D-4-O-methyl-myo-inositol.
