EC 5.4.99.61 Details
EC number
5.4.99.61
Accepted name
precorrin-8X methylmutase
Reaction
precorrin-8X = hydrogenobyrinate
Other name(s)
precorrin isomerase, hydrogenobyrinic acid-binding protein, cobH (gene name)
Systematic name
precorrin-8X 11,12-methylmutase
CAS registry number
138238-71-8
Comment
The enzyme, which participates in the aerobic (late cobalt insertion) adenosylcobalamin biosynthesis pathway, catalyses the conversion of precorrin-8X to hydrogenobyrinate by methyl rearrangement. The equivalent enzyme in the anaerobic pathway is EC 5.4.99.60, cobalt-precorrin-8 methylmutase.
