trimethylamine-corrinoid protein Co-methyltransferase
Cat No.
EXWM-1854
Description
The enzyme, which catalyses the transfer of a methyl group from trimethylamine to a trimethylamine-specific corrinoid protein (MttC), is involved in methanogenesis from trimethylamine. The enzyme contains the unusual amino acid pyrrolysine. Methylation of the corrinoid protein requires the central cobalt to be in the Co(I) state. During methylation the cobalt is oxidized to the Co(III) state. The methylated corrinoid protein is substrate for EC 2.1.1.247, methylated methylamine-specific corrinoid protein:coenzyme M methyltransferase.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Enzyme Commission Number
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC～-80 ºC.
Synonyms
mttB (gene name); trimethylamine methyltransferase
Reaction
trimethylamine + a [Co(I) trimethylamine-specific corrinoid protein] = a [methyl-Co(III) trimethylamine-specific corrinoid protein] + dimethylamine
