Accepted name: |
sirohydrochlorin nickelchelatase |
Reaction: |
Ni-sirohydrochlorin + 2 H+ = sirohydrochlorin + Ni2+ |
|
|
Other name(s): |
cfbA (gene name) |
Systematic name: |
Ni-sirohydrochlorin nickel-lyase (sirohydrochlorin-forming) |
Comments: |
The enzyme, studied from the methanogenic archaeon Methanosarcina acetivorans, participates in the biosynthesis of the nickel-containing tetrapyrrole cofactor coenzyme F430, which is required by EC 2.8.4.1, coenzyme-B sulfoethylthiotransferase. It catalyses the insertion of the nickel ion into sirohydrochlorin. |
