Coenzyme M biosynthesis
| Definition | Protein involved in the biosynthesis of coenzyme M. Coenzyme M (2-mercaptoethanesulfonic acid) is the smallest known organic cofactor. CoM serves as a methyl group carrier in key reactions within the pathway of methane formation from C1 precursors. In the alkene metabolism pathway, it is involved in aliphatic epoxyde carboxylation. |
