A new assay technique for catechol-0-methyltransferase is described. 3,4-Dihydroxyacetophenone is used as the substrate for the assay and the products, 3-hydroxy-4-methoxyacetophenone and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyacetophenone are detected spectrophotometrically at 344 nm in borate buffer, pH 10.0.

A method is described for the assay of histone methyltransferase using soluble histones as substrate. The precipitation of the methylated protein on chromatography paper allows for greater sensitivity and more rapid sample processing than have previously been reported. After incubation of the enzyme
methionixle methyltransferase in phosphate buffer extracts has been developed. This enzyme catalyzes the biosynthesis of S-methylmethionine from methioninc and S-adenosylmethionine. The radioactively labeled product. S-methplmethionine, is first separated from the radioactively labeled substrate, L
