NAME        5-Hydroxyfuranocoumarin 5-O-methyltransferase
CLASS       Transferases
            Transferring one-carbon groups
            Methyltransferases
SYSNAME     S-Adenosyl-L-methionine:5-hydroxyfuranocoumarin
            $ 5-O-methyltransferase
REACTION    S-Adenosyl-L-methionine + 5-Hydroxyfuranocoumarin =
            S-Adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 5-Methoxyfuranocoumarin
SUBSTRATE   S-Adenosyl-L-methionine
            5-Hydroxyfuranocoumarin
            Bergaptol
PRODUCT     S-Adenosyl-L-homocysteine
            5-Methoxyfuranocoumarin
            Bergapten
COMMENT     Converts bergaptol into bergapten.  Methylates the 5-hydroxyl of
            some hydroxy- and methylcoumarins, but has little activity on
            non-coumarin phenol.
