methylated tetramethylammonium-specific corrinoid protein:coenzyme M methyltransferase
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 CoM, forming the substrate for EC 2.8.4.1, coenzyme-B sulfoethylthiotransferase, the enzyme that catalyses the final step in methanogenesis.
