licodione 2'-O-methyltransferase
Ec Number:2.1.1.65
Cas Number:77000-07-8
Go Code:0030751

In enzymology, a licodione 2'-O-methyltransferase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

S-adenosyl-L-methionine + licodione

\rightleftharpoons

S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 2'-O-methyllicodione

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are S-adenosyl methionine and licodione, whereas its two products are S-adenosylhomocysteine and 2'-O-methyllicodione.

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring one-carbon group methyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is S-adenosyl-L-methionine:licodione 2'-O-methyltransferase.
