Accepted Name
juvenile hormone-III synthase
Alternative Name(s)
farnesoic acid methyltransferase
juvenile hormone acid methyltransferase
Reaction catalysed
  • (2E,6E)-farnesoate + S-adenosyl-L-methionine <=> methyl (2E,6E)-farnesoate + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine
  • juvenile hormone III carboxylate + S-adenosyl-L-methionine <=> juvenile hormone III + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine
Comment(s)
The enzyme, found in insects, is involved in the synthesis of juvenile hormone III, a sesquiterpenoid that regulates several processes including embryonic development, metamorphosis, and reproduction, in many insect species.
