Demethylspheroidene O-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.210 1-hydroxycarotenoid O-methylase 1-hydroxycarotenoid methylase 1-HO-carotenoid methylase CrtF) is an enzyme with system name S-adenosyl-L-methionine:demethylspheroidene O-methyltransferase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction S-adenosyl-L-methionine + demethylspheroidene S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + spheroideneIn Rhodopseudomonas capsulata and Rubrivivax gelatinosus the enzyme is involved in biosynthesis of spheroidene.
