Purification, properties and kinetic mechanism of flavonol 8-O-methyltransferase from Lotus corniculatus L.
Jay M., De Luca V., Ibrahim R.K.
A novel O-methyltransferase catalyzing the transfer of the methyl group of S-adenosyl-L-methionine to the 8-hydroxyl group of flavonols was purified about 1200-fold from Lotus flower buds, by precipitation with ammonium sulfate and successive chromatography on columns of Sephadex G-100, S-adenosyl ... >> More
A novel O-methyltransferase catalyzing the transfer of the methyl group of S-adenosyl-L-methionine to the 8-hydroxyl group of flavonols was purified about 1200-fold from Lotus flower buds, by precipitation with ammonium sulfate and successive chromatography on columns of Sephadex G-100, S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine--Agarose, hydroxyapatite and Polybuffer ion exchanger. The enzyme exhibited strict specificity for position 8 of 8-hydroxyquercetin and 8-hydroxykaempferol, a pH optimum at 7.9, a pI value of 5.5, an Mr of 55 X 10(3) and required Mg2+ and SH groups for activity. The Km values for 8-hydroxykaempferol and S-adenosyl-L-methionine were 1.3 microM and 53 microM, respectively. The data obtained from substrate interaction and product inhibition studies are expected for a steady-state ordered bi-bi mechanism, with 8-hydroxyflavonol binding before S-adenosyl-L-methionine followed by the release of S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine and 8-methoxyflavonol. An alternative mechanism that may also fit the data is the mono-iso Theorell-Chance with the inverse binding sequence and an isomerization step of the free enzyme. << Less

Bio-fermentation of modified flavonoids: an example of in vivo diversification of secondary metabolites.
Willits M.G., Giovanni M., Prata R.T.N., Kramer C.M., De Luca V., Steffens J.C., Graser G.

A bio-fermentation technique was used for the in vivo diversification of flavonoid structures based on expression in Escherichia coli of six O-methyltransferases (OMTs) from Mentha x piperita and one O-glucosyltransferase (GT) each from Arabidopsis thaliana and Allium cepa. Enzymes were shown to be regio-specific in in vitro experiments and modified a broad range of flavonoid substrates at various positions. Using the flavonol quercetin as a model substrate, we show that the product spectrum produced with the in vivo approach is identical to that found in vitro. Additionally, using mixed cultures of E. coli expressing different classes of modifying genes (OMTs and GTs), the production of polymethylated flavonoid glucosides was observed. This report demonstrates the potential to increase the structural diversity of plant secondary metabolites using a multi-enzyme, bio-fermentation approach. << Less
