A dihydrochalcone-specific O-methyltransferase from leaf buds of Populus trichocarpa implicated in bud resin formation
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We used transcriptomics and differential gene expression analyses of P. trichocarpa and P. balsamifera leaf buds to identify a gene encoding a P. trichocarpa dihydrochalcone-specific O-methyltransferase, which we named PtDOMT1. Detailed enzymatic analyses demonstrated PtDOMT1 to be a highly selective and regiospecific O-methyltransferase which methylates 4 and 4' positions of dihydrochalcones using S-adenosyl-L-methionine as a methyl donor.
