gene mtbB2, DNA and amino acid sequence determination and analysis, homology sequence comparison, co-transcription with of gene mttB encoding the TMA methyltransferase. The genes, organized on the chromosome in the order mtbC, mttB, mttC, mttP, and mtbB1, form a single transcriptional unit. The genes encoding the three types of methyltransferases that initiate methanogenesis from methylamine contain in-frame amber codons that are suppressed during expression of the characterized methyltransferases Methanosarcina barkeri

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism three different methyltransferases initiate methanogenesis from trimethylamine, dimethylamine, or monomethylamine by methylating different cognate corrinoid proteins that are subsequently used to methylate coenzyme M Methanosarcina barkeri
