Kaempferol 4'-O-methyltransferase
- Kaempferol 4'-O-methyltransferase
In enzymology, a kaempferol 4'-O-methyltransferase (EC number|2.1.1.155) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
:S-adenosyl-L-methionine + kaempferol S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + kaempferide
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are S-adenosyl methionine and kaempferol, whereas its two products are S-adenosylhomocysteine and kaempferide.
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring one-carbon group methyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is S-adenosyl-L-methionine:kaempferol 4'-O-methyltransferase. Other names in common use include S-adenosyl-L-methionine:flavonoid 4'-O-methyltransferase, and F 4'-OMT.
