#E. coli-expressed SAMT protein catalyzes the formation of the volatile ester methyl salicylate from salicylic acid with a Km (SA) of 83 and a Km (SAM) of 3-4. It can also methylate benzoic acid to form methyl benzoate, but its K(m) value for benzoic acid is 1720 M (much larger). Kcat/Km (SA) s-1 M-1 is 132. Activity with substrate benzoic acid is 45% relative to the activity with substrate salicylic acid. All other acids yield 0% activity.

  1. E. coli-expressed SAMT protein catalyzes the formation of the volatile ester methyl salicylate from salicylic acid with a Km (SA) of 83 and a Km (SAM) of 3-4. It can also methylate benzoic acid to form methyl benzoate, but its K(m) value for benzoic acid is 1720 M (much larger). Kcat/Km (SA) s-1 M-1 is 132. Activity with substrate benzoic acid is 45% relative to the activity with substrate salicylic acid. All other acids yield 0% activity.
