An enzyme has been found that N-methylates serotonin and tryptamine to psychotomimetic metabolites, bufotenine and N,N-dimethyltryptamine. This enzyme is highly localized in the rabbit lung and also N-methylates phenylethylamine derivatives such as tyramine, phenylethylamine , mescaline, and dopamine.
已发现一种酶,它可将血清素和色胺甲基化为致幻代谢产物,即蟾毒色胺和N,N - 二甲基色胺。这种酶高度集中于兔肺中,并且还能将诸如酪胺、苯乙胺、三甲氧苯乙胺和多巴胺等苯乙胺衍生物甲基化。
