Add article description


Demethylrebeccamycin-D-glucose O-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.164, RebM) is an enzyme with systematic name S-adenosyl-L-methionine:demethylrebeccamycin-D-glucose O-methyltransferase.[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

4'-demethylrebeccamycin + S-adenosyl-L-methionine rebeccamycin + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine
Quick Facts Identifiers, EC no. ...

Demethylrebeccamycin-D-glucose O-methyltransferase catalyses the last step in the biosynthesis of rebeccamycin, an indolocarbazole alkaloid produced by the Actinobacterium Lechevalieria aerocolonigenes.
