SYSTEMATIC NAME

IUBMB Comments

S-adenosyl-L-methionine:7-methylxanthine N3-methyltransferase

This is the third enzyme in the caffeine-biosynthesis pathway. This enzyme can also catalyse the conversion of paraxanthine into caffeine, although the paraxanthine pathway is considered to be a minor pathway for caffeine biosynthesis [2,3].
