'''Diphthine synthase''' (DPS) is a S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM)-dependent methyltransferase.  DPS catalyzes the trimethylation of a specific histidine residue in elongation factor 2 forming a diphthine and producing S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine (SAH).  DPS participates in the diphthamide biosynthesis.<ref>PMID:20873788</ref>
