Abstract
Chemical diversity: Two SAM-dependent N-methyltransferases-LmbJ from the biosynthesis of the antibiotic lincomycin and CcbJ from celesticetin biosynthesis-have been characterized and compared. Both tested enzymes form multimers and are able to utilize N-demethyllincomycin, the natural substrate of LmbJ, with comparable efficiency.Entities:
