EC 2.1.1.289     
Accepted name: cobalt-precorrin-7 (C5)-methyltransferase
Reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + cobalt-precorrin-7 = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + cobalt-precorrin-8

Other name(s): CbiE
Systematic name: S-adenosyl-L-methionine:precorrin-7 C5-methyltransferase
Comments: This enzyme catalyses the methylation at C-5 of cobalt-precorrin-7, a step in the anaerobic (early cobalt insertion) adenosylcobalamin biosynthesis pathway. The equivalent activity in the aerobic adenosylcobalamin biosynthesis pathway is catalysed by the bifunctional enzyme EC 2.1.1.132, precorrin-6B C5,15-methyltransferase (decarboxylating).
