Precorrin-4 C11-methyltransferase
In enzymology, a precorrin-4 C11-methyltransferase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The two substrates of this enzyme are S-adenosyl methionine and precorrin 4; its two products are S-adenosylhomocysteine and precorrin 5.
This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring one-carbon group methyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is S-adenosyl-L-methionine:precorrin-4 C11 methyltransferase. Other names in common use include precorrin-3 methylase, and CobM. It is part of the biosynthetic pathway to cobalamin in aerobic bacteria.
