Description
The enzyme, which is involved in methanogenesis from tetramethylammonium, catalyses the transfer of a methyl group from a corrinoid protein (see EC 2.1.1.252, tetramethylammonium-corrinoid protein Co-methyltransferase), where it is bound to the cobalt cofactor, to coenzyme M, forming the substrate for EC 2.8.4.1, coenzyme-B sulfoethylthiotransferase, the enzyme that catalyses the final step in methanogenesis.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder

methyltransferase 2 (ambiguous); mtqA (gene name)
Reaction
a [methyl-Co(III) tetramethylammonium-specific corrinoid protein] + coenzyme M = methyl-CoM + a [Co(I) tetramethylammonium-specific corrinoid protein]
