CC   -!- FUNCTION: 4-dimethylallyltryptophan N-methyltransferase; part of the
CC       gene cluster that mediates the biosynthesis of fungal ergot alkaloid
CC       (PubMed:22403186). DmaW catalyzes the first step of ergot alkaloid
CC       biosynthesis by condensing dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAP) and
CC       tryptophan to form 4-dimethylallyl-L-tryptophan (PubMed:22403186). The
CC       second step is catalyzed by the methyltransferase easF that methylates
CC       4-dimethylallyl-L-tryptophan in the presence of S-adenosyl-L-
CC       methionine, resulting in the formation of 4-dimethylallyl-L-abrine
CC       (PubMed:22403186). The catalase easC and the FAD-dependent
CC       oxidoreductase easE then transform 4-dimethylallyl-L-abrine to
CC       chanoclavine-I which is further oxidized by easD in the presence of
CC       NAD(+), resulting in the formation of chanoclavine-I aldehyde
CC       (PubMed:22403186). Chanoclavine-I aldehyde is the precursor of
CC       ergoamides and ergopeptines in Clavicipitaceae, and clavine-type
CC       alcaloids such as fumiclavine in Trichocomaceae (PubMed:22403186).
CC       However, the metabolites downstream of chanoclavine-I aldehyde in
CC       Arthrodermataceae have not been identified yet (PubMed:22403186).
