additional information |
hydrogenation of 2,3 double bond of tabersonine instead of hydration results in a 75% decrease in N-methylation, double bound present: no N-methylation, the presence of 6,7 double bound is a necessary structural requirement for N-methylation with membrane-bound enzyme, whereas the detergent-solubilized enzyme is also able to N-methylate the 6,7 anhydro analogue |
