Fig. 7

a Methylation of 5a to give 7a; b methylation of 5b to give 7b. In all cases, the methylation system generating SAM is used to avoid the addition of stoichiometric quantities of SAM and is used with the O-methyltransferases RnCOMT and MxSafC. The methyl donor, SAM is generated in situ by the enzyme EcMAT and the reaction byproduct, SAH is broken down by another enzyme, EcMTAN.
