Biosynthesis of vitamin B12 in Pseudomonas denitrificans: the biosynthetic sequence from precorrin-6y to precorrin-8x is catalyzed by the cobL gene product
Abstract
A protein catalyzing methylation at C-5 and C-15 and decarboxylation of the acetic acid side chain at C-12 on precorrin-6y to yield precorrin-8x was purified to homogeneity from a recombinant strain of Pseudomonas denitrificans. It was sequenced at the N terminus and shown to be encoded by the cobL gene.
