Biochemical Characterization of a Flavonoid <i>O</i>-methyltransferase from Perilla Leaves and Its Application in 7-Methoxyflavonoid Production

Biochemical Characterization of a Flavonoid <i>O</i>-methyltransferase from Perilla Leaves and Its Application in 7-Methoxyflavonoid Production

Methylation is a common structural modification that can alter and improve the biological activities of natural compounds. <i>O</i>-Methyltransferases (OMTs) catalyze the methylation of a wide array of secondary metabolites, including flavonoids, and are potentially useful tools for the...
