ENZYME entry: EC 2.1.1.388

Accepted Name
proline betaine--corrinoid protein Co-methyltransferase
Reaction catalysed
Co(I)-[quaternary-amine-specific corrinoid protein] + H(+) + L-proline betaine <=> methyl-Co(III)-[quaternary-amine-specific corrinoid protein] + N-methyl-L-proline
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Eubacterium limosum, is a component of a system that transfers a methyl group from L-proline betaine to tetrahydrofolate, as part of an L-proline betaine degradation pathway.
  • The resulting 5-methyltetrahydrofolate is processed to acetyl-CoA via the Wood--Ljungdahl pathway.
