Biotechnological applications of S-adenosyl-methionine-dependent methyltransferases for natural products biosynthesis and diversification

Abstract In the biosynthesis of natural products, methylation is a common and essential transformation to alter molecules’ bioavailability and bioactivity. The main methylation reaction is performed by S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)-dependent methyltransferases (MTs). With advancements in genomic and ch...
