EC 2.1.1.271     
Accepted name: cobalt-precorrin-4 methyltransferase
Reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + cobalt-precorrin-4 = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + cobalt-precorrin-5A

Other name(s): CbiF; S-adenosyl-L-methionine:cobalt-precorrin-4 11-methyltransferase
Systematic name: S-adenosyl-L-methionine:cobalt-precorrin-4 C11-methyltransferase
Comments: This enzyme, which participates in the anaerobic (early cobalt insertion) cobalamin biosynthesis pathway, catalyses the methylation of C-11 in cobalt-precorrin-4 to form cobalt-precorrin-5A. See EC 2.1.1.133, precorrin-4 C11-methyltransferase, for the equivalent enzyme that participates in the aerobic cobalamin biosynthesis pathway.
