METHOD AND COMPOSITIONS FOR DETERMINING ENZYMATIC ACTIVITY AND SPECIFICITY OF METHYLTRANSFERASES

摘要

The invention provides crystalline O-methyltransferases and isolated non-native O-methyltransferases as well as sets of their structural coordinates. Also provided are methods of predicting the activity or substrate specificity of putative O-methyltransferases, methods of identifying potential substrates of O-methyltransferases, and methods of identifying potential inhibitors of methyltransferases.
