ENZYME entry: EC 2.1.1.107

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/2.1.1.107
Accepted Name
uroporphyrinogen-III C-methyltransferase
Alternative Name(s)
adenosylmethionine-uroporphyrinogen III methyltransferase
S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent uroporphyrinogen III methylase
SUMT
urogen III methylase
uroporphyrin-III C-methyltransferase
uroporphyrinogen III methylase
uroporphyrinogen-III methylase
uroporphyrinogen-III methyltransferase
uroporphyrinogen methyltransferase
Reaction catalysed
uroporphyrinogen III + 2 S-adenosyl-L-methionine = precorrin-2 + 2 S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + H(+)
Comment(s)
  • This enzyme catalyzes two sequential methylation reactions, the first forming precorrin-1 and the second leading to the formation of precorrin-2.
  • It is the first of three steps leading to the formation of siroheme from uroporphyrinogen III.
  • The second step involves an NAD(+)-dependent dehydrogenation to form sirohydrochlorin from precorrin-2 (EC 1.3.1.76) and the third step involves the chelation of Fe(2+) to sirohydrochlorin to form siroheme (EC 4.99.1.4).
  • In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the last two steps are carried out by a single bifunctional enzyme, Met8p.
  • In some bacteria, steps 1-3 are catalyzed by a single multifunctional protein called CysG, whereas in Bacillus megaterium, three separate enzymes carry out each of the steps, with SirA being responsible for the above reaction.
  • Also involved in the biosynthesis of cobalamin.
