RESUMO
Wood, J. M. (University of Illinois, Urbana), and R. S. Wolfe. Components required for the formation of CH4 from methylcobalamin by extracts of Methanobacillus omelianskii. J. Bacteriol. 92:696–700. 1966.—Optimal conditions for the formation of CH4 from methylcobalamin (methyl-cobalt-5,6-dimethylbenzimidazolylcobamide) by partially purified extracts of Methanobacillus omelianskii (Methanobacterium omelianskii) were achieved by the addition of two protein fractions, adenosine triphosphate, Mg++, and a reduced flavin adenine dinucleotide-generating system. Adenosine diphosphate and adenosine monophosphate play an important role in the regulation of C1 transfer in this reaction. The possible position of adenosine triphosphate in B12-dependent methyl transfer is discussed.
