Jasmonate O-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.141) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
This is a methylation reaction in which the plant hormone, jasmonic acid, is converted to its ester, methyl jasmonate. The methyl group comes from the cofactor, S-adenosyl methionine (SAM), which becomes S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine (SAH). The enzyme was characterised from Arabidopsis thaliana.[1]
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:jasmonate O-methyltransferase. This enzyme is also called jasmonic acid carboxyl methyltransferase.[2]
