Chemical diversity : Two SAM‐dependent N ‐methyltransferases—LmbJ from the biosynthesis of the antibiotic lincomycin and CcbJ from celesticetin biosynthesis—have been characterized and compared. Both tested enzymes form multimers and are able to utilize N ‐demethyllincomycin, the natural substrate of LmbJ, with comparable efficiency.
