Coordination and binding geometry of methyl-coenzyme M in the red1m state of methyl-coenzyme M reductase
Methane formation in methanogenic Archaea is catalyzed by methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR) and takes place via the reduction of methyl-coenzyme M (CH₃-S-CoM) with coenzyme B (HS-CoB) to methane and the heterodisulfide CoM-S-S-CoB. MCR harbors the nickel porphyrinoid conenzyme F⠄₃₀ as a prosthetic g...
