Enzyme Information

4.99.1.3
Sirohydrochlorin cobaltochelatase.
based on mapping to UniProt O29537
Cobalt-sirohydrochlorin + 2 H(+) = sirohydrochlorin + Co(2+).
-!- This enzyme is a type II chelatase, being either a monomer (CbiX) or a homodimer (CibK) and being ATP-independent. -!- CbiK from Salmonella enterica uses precorrin-2 as the substrate to yield cobalt-precorrin-2. -!- The enzyme contains two histidines at the active site that are thought to be involved in the deprotonation of the tetrapyrrole substrate as well as in metal binding. -!- CbiX from Bacillus megaterium inserts cobalt at the level of sirohydrochlorin (factor-II) rather than precorrin-2.
