ENZYME entry: EC 2.1.1.254

Accepted Name
erythromycin 3''-O-methyltransferase
Reaction catalysed
  • erythromycin C + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = erythromycin A + H(+) + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine
  • erythromycin D + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = erythromycin B + H(+) + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme methylates the 3 position of the mycarosyl moiety of erythromycin C, forming the most active form of the antibiotic, erythromycin A.
  • It can also methylate the precursor erythromycin D, forming erythromycin B, which is then converted to erythromycin A by EC 1.14.13.154.
