Abstract excerpt
Caffeoyl CoA O-methyltransferases (CCoAOMTs) catalyze the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine to a hydroxyl moiety of caffeoyl-CoA as part of the lignin biosynthetic pathway. CCoAOMT-like proteins also catalyze to a variety of flavonoids, coumarins, and phenylpropanoids. Several CCoAOMTs that prefer flavonoids as substrates have been characterized from liverworts. Here, we cloned two CCoAOMT...
