EC 5.4.99.61     
Accepted name: precorrin-8X methylmutase
Reaction: precorrin-8X = hydrogenobyrinate
For diagram of corrin biosynthesis (part 4), click here
Other name(s): precorrin isomerase; hydrogenobyrinic acid-binding protein; cobH (gene name)
Systematic name: precorrin-8X 11,12-methylmutase
Comments: 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.
