S-adenosyl-L-methionine:2-heptyl-1-hydroxyquinolin-4(1H)-one methyltransferase
The enzyme, found in mycobacteria, is a member of a family of heterocyclic toxin methyltransferases. It is involved in defense against several antimicrobial natural compounds and drugs. 4-Hydroxyquinolin-2(1H)-one, 2-heptylquinolin-4(1H)-one, 2-heptyl-3-hydroxyquinolin-4(1H)-one (the "Pseudomonas quinolone signal", PQS) and the flavonol quercetin are also O-methylated, albeit with lower activity [2]. The enzyme also N-methylates the bactericidal compound 3-methyl-1-oxo-2-[3-oxo-3-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)propyl]-1,5-dihydrobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-4-carbonitrile [1].
