Reconstitution of trimethylamine-dependent coenzyme M methylation with the trimethylamine corrinoid protein and the isozymes of methyltransferase II from Methanosarcina barkeri.

Reconstitution of trimethylamine-dependent coenzyme M (CoM) methylation was achieved with three purified polypeptides.

Reconstitution of trimethylamine-dependent coenzyme M (CoM) methylation was achieved with three purified polypeptides. Two of these polypeptides copurified as a trimethylamine methyl transfer (TMA-MT) activity detected by stimulation of the TMA:CoM methyl transfer reaction in cell extracts. The purified TMA-MT fraction stimulated the rate of methyl-CoM formation sevenfold, up to 1.7 micromol/min/mg of TMA-MT protein. The TMA-MT polypeptides had molecular masses of 52 and 26 kDa. Gel permeation of the TMA-MT fraction demonstrated that the 52-kDa polypeptide eluted with an apparent molecular mass of 280 kDa. The 26-kDa protein eluted primarily as a monomer, but some 26-kDa polypeptides also eluted with the 280-kDa peak, indicating that the two proteins weakly associate. The two polypeptides could be completely separated using gel permeation in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The corrinoid remained associated with the 26-kDa polypeptide at a molar ratio of 1.1 corrin/26-kDa polypeptide. This polypeptide was therefore designated the TMA corrinoid protein, or TCP. The TMA-MT polypeptides, when supplemented with purified methylcorrinoid:CoM methyltransferase (MT2), could effect the demethylation of TMA with the subsequent methylation of CoM and the production of dimethylamine at specific activities of up to 600 nmol/min/mg of TMA-MT protein. Neither dimethylamine nor monomethylamine served as the substrate, and the activity required Ti(III) citrate and methyl viologen. TMA-MT could interact with either isozyme of MT2 but had the greatest affinity for the A isozyme. These results suggest that TCP is uniquely involved in TMA-dependent methanogenesis, that this corrinoid protein is methylated by the substrate and demethylated by either isozyme of MT2, and that the predominant isozyme of MT2 found in TMA-grown cells is the favored participant in the TMA:CoM methyl transfer reaction. << Less

Clustered genes encoding the methyltransferases of methanogenesis from monomethylamine.
Burke S.A., Lo S.L., Krzycki J.A.
Coenzyme M (CoM) is methylated during methanogenesis from monomethyamine in a reaction catalyzed by three proteins.

Coenzyme M (CoM) is methylated during methanogenesis from monomethyamine in a reaction catalyzed by three proteins. Using monomethylamine, a 52-kDa polypeptide termed monomethylamine methyltransferase (MMAMT) methylates the corrinoid cofactor bound to a second polypeptide, monomethylamine corrinoid protein (MMCP). Methylated MMCP then serves as a substrate for MT2-A, which methylates CoM. The genes for these proteins are clustered on 6.8 kb of DNA in Methanosarcina barkeri MS. The gene encoding MMCP (mtmC) is located directly upstream of the gene encoding MMAMT (mtmB). The gene encoding MT2-A (mtbA) was found 1.1 kb upstream of mtmC, but no obvious open reading frame was found in the intergenic region between mtbA and mtmC. A single monocistronic transcript was found for mtbA that initiated 76 bp from the translational start. Separate transcripts of 2.4 and 4.7 kb were detected, both of which carried mtmCB. The larger transcript also encoded mtmP, which is homologous to the APC family of cationic amine permeases and may therefore encode a methylamine permease. A single transcriptional start site was found 447 bp upstream of the translational start of mtmC. MtmC possesses the corrinoid binding motif found in corrinoid proteins involved in dimethylsulfide- and methanol-dependent methanogenesis, as well as in methionine synthase. The open reading frame of mtmB was interrupted by a single in-frame, midframe, UAG codon which was also found in mtmB from M. barkeri NIH. A mechanism that circumvents UAG-directed termination of translation must operate during expression of mtmB in this methanogen. << Less

Methylcobamide:coenzyme M methyltransferase isozymes from Methanosarcina barkeri: physicochemical characterization, cloning, sequence analysis, and heterologous gene expression.
Leclerc G.M., Grahame D.A.
A comparative study was made on the physicochemical characteristics of two isozymes of methylcobamide:-coenzyme M methyltransferase (MT2). Both isozymes catalyzed S-methylation of 2-thioethanesulfonate (coenzyme M) and exhibited similar apparent Km values for coenzyme M of 35 microM (MT2-A) and 20 ... >> More
A comparative study was made on the physicochemical characteristics of two isozymes of methylcobamide:-coenzyme M methyltransferase (MT2). Both isozymes catalyzed S-methylation of 2-thioethanesulfonate (coenzyme M) and exhibited similar apparent Km values for coenzyme M of 35 microM (MT2-A) and 20 microM (MT2-M). Weak binding to methylcobalamin was indicated by the apparent Km of 14 mM for both isozymes. Cob(I)alamin was established as the major product of the reaction, demonstrating heterolytic cleavage of the methylcobamide carbon-cobalt bond. The isozymes were shown to be zinc-containing metalloproteins. Metal ion chelators strongly inhibited both isozymes. A variety of coenzyme M analogs were tested for activity and/or inhibition. One alternative substrate 3-mercaptopropionate was discovered, with apparent Km 9 mM (MT2-A) and 10 mM (MT2-M). The results suggested an active site geometry in which coenzyme M is bound both by S-coordination to zinc, and electrostatic interaction of the sulfonate with a cationic group on the enzyme. Methanosarcina barkeri genes cmtA and cmtM encoding both isozymes were cloned and sequenced. Both genes encoded proteins with 339 amino acids and predicted molecular masses of 36-37 kDa. Active forms of both isozymes were expressed in Escherichia coli. A conserved segment with the potential for metal binding was found. The possibility of zinc involvement in catalysis of coenzyme M methylation is considered. << Less

Methyl transfer from dimethylamine to coenzyme M was reconstituted in vitro for the first time using only highly purified proteins. These proteins isolated from Methanosarcina barkeri included the previously unidentified corrinoid protein MtbC, which copurified with MtbA, the methylcorrinoid:Coenzyme M methyltransferase specific for methanogenesis from methylamines. MtbC binds 1.0 mol of corrinoid cofactor/mol of 24-kDa polypeptide and stimulated dimethylamine:coenzyme M methyl transfer 3.4-fold in a cell extract. Purified MtbC and MtbA were used to assay and purify a dimethylamine:corrinoid methyltransferase, MtbB1. MtbB1 is a 230-kDa protein composed of 51-kDa subunits that do not possess a corrinoid prosthetic group. Purified MtbB1, MtbC, and MtbA were the sole protein requirements for in vitro dimethylamine:coenzyme M methyl transfer. An MtbB1:MtbC ratio of 1 was optimal for coenzyme M methylation with dimethylamine. MtbB1 methylated either corrinoid bound to MtbC or free cob(I)alamin with dimethylamine, indicating MtbB1 carries an active site for dimethylamine demethylation and corrinoid methylation. Experiments in which different proteins of the resolved monomethylamine:coenzyme M methyl transfer reaction replaced proteins involved in dimethylamine:coenzyme M methyl transfer indicated high specificity of MtbB1 and MtbC in dimethylamine:coenzyme M methyl transfer activity. These results indicate MtbB1 demethylates dimethylamine and specifically methylates the corrinoid prosthetic group of MtbC, which is subsequently demethylated by MtbA to methylate coenzyme M during methanogenesis from dimethylamine. << Less
