FunFam 253777: Precorrin-2 dehydrogenase

There are 1 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Precorrin-2 dehydrogenase. [EC: 1.3.1.76]
Precorrin-2 + NAD(+) = sirohydrochlorin + NADH.
  • Catalyzes the second of three steps leading to the formation of siroheme from uroporphyrinogen III.
  • The first step involves the donation of two S-adenosyl-L-methionine- derived methyl groups to carbons 2 and 7 of uroporphyrinogen III to form precorrin-2 (EC 2.1.1.107) and the third step involves the chelation of ferrous iron to sirohydrochlorin to form siroheme (EC 4.99.1.4).
  • In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the last two steps are carried out by a single bifunctional enzyme, Met8p.
  • In some bacteria, steps 1-3 are catalyzed by a single multifunctional protein called CysG, whereas in Bacillus megaterium, three separate enzymes carry out each of the steps, with SirC being responsible for the above reaction.
