IEMT1

(Iso)eugenol O-methyltransferase

368 amino acids

Catalyzes the methylation of the para-4-hydroxyl of both eugenol and (iso)eugenol to methyleugenol and isomethyleugenol, respectively. The resulting products are part of a complex mixture of low-molecular-weight volatile compounds emitted by the flowers to attract pollinators.

Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. Cation-independent O-methyltransferase family. COMT subfamily.
