In enzymology, a diphthine synthase (EC 2.1.1.98) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

S-adenosyl-L-methionine + 2-(3-carboxy-3-aminopropyl)-L-histidine S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 2-[3-carboxy-3-(methylammonio)propyl]-L-histidine

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are S-adenosyl methionine and 2-(3-carboxy-3-aminopropyl)-L-histidine, whereas its two products are S-adenosylhomocysteine and [[2-[3-carboxy-3-(methylammonio)propyl]-L-histidine]].

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring one-carbon group methyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is S-adenosyl-L-methionine:2-(3-carboxy-3-aminopropyl)-L-histidine methyltransferase. Other names in common use include S-adenosyl-L-methionine:elongation factor 2 methyltransferase, and diphthine methyltransferase.

Amine <i>N</i>-methyltransferase Class of enzymes

Amine N-methyltransferase, also called indolethylamine N-methyltransferase, and thioether S-methyltransferase, is an enzyme that is ubiquitously present in non-neural tissues and catalyzes the N-methylation of tryptamine and structurally related compounds. More recently, it was discovered that this enzyme can also catalyze the methylation of thioether and selenoether compounds, although the physiological significance of this biotransformation is not yet known.

The isoprenylcysteine o-methyltransferase carries out carboxyl methylation of cleaved eukaryotic proteins that terminate in a CaaX motif. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae this methylation is carried out by Ste14p, an integral endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein. Ste14p is the founding member of the isoprenylcysteine carboxyl methyltransferase (ICMT) family, whose members share significant sequence homology.
