Metabolite Identification
Common Name2-Hydroxyestradiol-3-methyl ether
Description2-Hydroxyestradiol-3-methylether is a methoxylated derivative of 2-hydroxyestradiol. 2-hydroxy estrogen metabolites can be converted to anticarcinogenic methoxylated metabolites (2-methoxyestrone and 2-methoxyestradiol, 2-hydroxyestrone and 2-hydroxyestradiol 3-methyl ether) by catechol O-methyltransferase (PMID: 11172156 ). 2-hydroxyestradiol 3-methyl ether has been found in the urine of pregnant women (along with other 2-hydroxyestrogen ethers) although the amounts are generally small (less than 5 ug/24 hours). (PMID: 966757 ).

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in magnesium ion binding
Specific function:
Catalyzes the O-methylation, and thereby the inactivation, of catecholamine neurotransmitters and catechol hormones. Also shortens the biological half-lives of certain neuroactive drugs, like L-DOPA, alpha-methyl DOPA and isoproterenol.
