Comments [?]

case <OC:Hyphomicrobiales> or <OC:Rhodobacterales> or <OC:Pseudomonadales> or <OC:Actinomycetota>
Function Catalyzes the ATP-dependent amidation of the two carboxylate groups at positions a and c of hydrogenobyrinate, using either L-glutamine or ammonia as the nitrogen source.
Catalytic activity RHEA:12544: 2 ATP + 2 H2O + hydrogenobyrinate + 2 L-glutamine = 2 ADP + 2 H(+) + hydrogenobyrinate a,c-diamide + 2 L-glutamate + 2 phosphate
EC 6.3.5.9
Pathway Cofactor biosynthesis; adenosylcobalamin biosynthesis; cob(II)yrinate a,c-diamide from precorrin-2 (aerobic route): step 9/10.
Domain Comprises of two domains. The C-terminal domain contains the binding site for glutamine and catalyzes the hydrolysis of this substrate to glutamate and ammonia. The N-terminal domain is anticipated to bind ATP and hydrogenobyrinate and catalyzes the ultimate synthesis of the diamide product. The ammonia produced via the glutaminase domain is probably translocated to the adjacent domain via a molecular tunnel, where it reacts with an activated intermediate.
Miscellaneous The a and c carboxylates of hydrogenobyrinate are activated for nucleophilic attack via formation of a phosphorylated intermediate by ATP. CobB catalyzes first the amidation of the c-carboxylate, and then that of the a-carboxylate.
else case <OC:Methanobacteria> or <OC:Methanococci> or <OC:Methanomicrobia> or <OC:Methanopyri>
Function Catalyzes the ATP-dependent amidation of the two carboxylate groups at positions a and c of cobyrinate, using either L-glutamine or ammonia as the nitrogen source. Involved in the biosynthesis of the unique nickel-containing tetrapyrrole coenzyme F430, the prosthetic group of methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR), which plays a key role in methanogenesis and anaerobic methane oxidation. Catalyzes the ATP-dependent amidation of the two carboxylate groups at positions a and c of Ni-sirohydrochlorin, using L-glutamine or ammonia as the nitrogen source.
Catalytic activity RHEA:26289: 2 ATP + cob(II)yrinate + 2 H2O + 2 L-glutamine = 2 ADP + cob(II)yrinate a,c diamide + 2 H(+) + 2 L-glutamate + 2 phosphate
EC 6.3.5.11
RHEA:52896: 2 ATP + 2 H2O + 2 L-glutamine + Ni-sirohydrochlorin = 2 ADP + 2 H(+) + 2 L-glutamate + Ni-sirohydrochlorin a,c-diamide + 2 phosphate
EC 6.3.5.12
Pathway Cofactor biosynthesis; adenosylcobalamin biosynthesis; cob(II)yrinate a,c-diamide from sirohydrochlorin (anaerobic route): step 10/10.
Domain Comprises of two domains. The C-terminal domain contains the binding site for glutamine and catalyzes the hydrolysis of this substrate to glutamate and ammonia. The N-terminal domain is anticipated to bind ATP, and cobyrinate or Ni-sirohydrochlorin, and catalyzes the ultimate synthesis of the diamide product. The ammonia produced via the glutaminase domain is probably translocated to the adjacent domain via a molecular tunnel, where it reacts with an activated intermediate.
Miscellaneous The a and c carboxylates of cobyrinate and Ni-sirohydrochlorin are activated for nucleophilic attack via formation of a phosphorylated intermediate by ATP. CbiA catalyzes first the amidation of the c-carboxylate, and then that of the a-carboxylate.
