OMT1

Gene
OMT1
Protein
Caffeic acid 3-O-methyltransferase 1
Organism
Populus tremuloides
Length
365 amino acids
Function
Catalyzes the conversion of caffeic acid to ferulic acid and of 5-hydroxyferulic acid to sinapic acid. The resulting products may subsequently be converted to the corresponding alcohols that are incorporated into lignins.
Similarity
Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. Cation-independent O-methyltransferase family. COMT subfamily.

Gene

Protein
Flavone 3'-O-methyltransferase 1
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
363 amino acids
Function
Methylates OH residues of flavonoid compounds. Converts quercetin into isorhamnetin. Dihydroquercetin is not a substrate. Catalyzes the methylation of monolignols, the lignin precursors. Does not contribute to the phenylpropanoid pattern of the pollen tryphine, but is probably confined to isorhamnetin glycoside biosynthesis (PubMed:10700397, PubMed:12777055, PubMed:20652169, PubMed:22258746). Involved in melatonin biosynthesis. Can function as acetylserotonin O-methyltransferase. Catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group onto N-acetylserotonin, producing melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) (PubMed:25039887).

Protein
Flavone O-methyltransferase 1
Organism
Triticum aestivum
Length
360 amino acids
Function
Flavone-specific O-methyltransferase with a preference for flavones > flavonols. Active with tricetin, luteolin, quercitin and eriodictyol. Very low activity with phenylpropanoids (5-hydroxyferulic acid and caffeic acid). Catalyzes the sequential O-methylation of tricetin via 3'-O-methyltricetin, 3',5'-O-methyltricetin to 3',4',5'-O-trimethyltricetin.

Quercetin 3-O-methyltransferase 1
Organism
Chrysosplenium americanum
Length
343 amino acids
Function
Methylates OH residues of flavonoid and phenylpropanoid compounds and shows a higher affinity for flavonoid than phenylpropanoid substrates. Substrate preference is quercetin (flavonoid) = luteolin (flavonoid) > 5-hydroxyferulic acid (phenylpropanoid) > caffeic acid (phenylpropanoid) >> apigenin (flavonoid) = kempferol (flavonoid). 3,4-dimethylquercetin is not a substrate.
