Application
Ammonium 2-(methylthio)ethanesulfonate (Methyl coenzyme M) is converted into methane by the enzyme Methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR) derived from methanogenic archaea. Methy-coenzyme M is used in studies on methanogenic (methane-producing) enzymatic processes.

Methyl-coenzyme M reductase catalyzes the reversible synthesis of methane from methyl-coenzyme M in methanogenic and ANME-1 and ANME-2 Archaea. The purification procedure for methyl-coenzyme M reductase from Methanothermobacter marburgensis is described. The procedure is an accumulation of almost 30 years

The reduction of the heterodisulfide of coenzyme M (H-S-CoM) and 7-mercaptoheptanoyl-L-threonine phosphate (H-S-HTP) is a key reaction in the metabolism of methanogenic bacteria. The heterodisulfide reductase catalyzing this step was purified 80-fold to apparent homogeneity from Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum. The native

The biochemical mechanism for the formation of the amide bond in N-(7-mercaptoheptanoyl)-L-threonine phosphate (HS-HTP) has been studied by measuring the incorporation of L-[3-(3)H]threonine into N-(7-mercaptoheptanoyl)-L-threonine (HS-HT) by cell extracts (CE) of Methanosarcina thermophila incubated with different precursors. Synthesis of HS-HT
