Caffeine synthase is a methyltransferase enzyme involved in the caffeine biosynthesis pathway. It is expressed in tea species, coffee species, and cocoa species. The enzyme catalyses the following reactions: [1]
Caffeine synthase is expressed in the Camellia species irrawadiensis, ptilophylla, and sinensis; [2] the Coffea species arabica, [3] [4] and canephora; [5] and in Theobroma cacao. [6]
