EC 1.8.98.1 Details
EC number
1.8.98.1
Accepted name
dihydromethanophenazine:CoB-CoM heterodisulfide reductase
Reaction
CoB + CoM + methanophenazine = CoM-S-S-CoB + dihydromethanophenazine
Other name(s)
hdrDE (gene names),
CoB—CoM heterodisulfide reductase (ambiguous),
heterodisulfide reductase (ambiguous),
coenzyme B:coenzyme M:methanophenazine oxidoreductase
Systematic name
CoB:CoM:methanophenazine oxidoreductase
Comment
This enzyme, found in methanogenic archaea that belong to the Methanosarcinales order, regenerates CoM and CoB after the action of EC 2.8.4.1, coenzyme-B sulfoethylthiotransferase. It is a membrane-bound enzyme that contains (per heterodimeric unit) two distinct b-type hemes and two [4Fe-4S] clusters. cf. EC 1.8.7.3, ferredoxin:CoB-CoM heterodisulfide reductase, EC 1.8.98.5, H2:CoB-CoM heterodisulfide,ferredoxin reductase, EC 1.8.98.6, formate:CoB-CoM heterodisulfide,ferredoxin reductase and EC 1.8.98.4, coenzyme F420:CoB-CoM heterodisulfide,ferredoxin reductase.
