ENZYME entry: EC 2.1.1.378

Accepted Name
[methyl-Co(III) glycine betaine-specific corrinoid protein]- -tetrahydrofolate methyltransferase
Reaction catalysed
(6S)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + methyl-Co(III)-[glycine betaine-specific corrinoid protein] <=> (6S)-5-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + Co(I)-[glycine betaine-specific corrinoid protein] + H(+)
Comment(s)
  • This enzyme, characterized from the anaerobic bacterium Desulfitobacterium hafniense Y51, catalyzes a similar reaction to that of EC 2.1.1.258, but in the opposite direction, transferring a methyl group from a methylated corrinoid protein to tetrahydrofolate.
  • The corrinoid protein is specifically methylated by EC 2.1.1.376.
