Enzyme Information

2.1.1.128
(RS)-norcoclaurine 6-O-methyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q5C9L7
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + (RS)-norcoclaurine = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + (RS)-coclaurine.
-!- The enzyme will also catalyze the 6-O-methylation of (RS)- norlaudanosoline to form 6-O-methyl-norlaudanosoline, but this alkaloid has not been found to occur in plants.
