EC 2.1.1.344     
Accepted name: ornithine lipid N-methyltransferase
Reaction: 3 S-adenosyl-L-methionine + an ornithine lipid = 3 S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + an N,N,N-trimethylornithine lipid (overall reaction)
(1a) S-adenosyl-L-methionine + an ornithine lipid = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + an N-methylornithine lipid
(1b) S-adenosyl-L-methionine + an N-methylornithine lipid = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + an N,N-dimethylornithine lipid
(1c) S-adenosyl-L-methionine + an N,N-dimethylornithine lipid = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + an N,N,N-trimethylornithine lipid
Glossary: an ornithine lipid = an Nα-[(3R)-3-(acyloxy)acyl]-L-ornithine
Other name(s): olsG (gene name)
Systematic name: S-adenosyl-L-methionine:ornithine lipid N-methyltransferase
Comments: The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Singulisphaera acidiphila, catalyses three successive methylations of the terminal δ-nitrogen in ornithine lipids.
