Cobamide structure depends on both lower ligand availability and CobT substrate specificity.

Chemistry & biology - 24 Oct 2013

Crofts Terence S, Seth Erica C, Hazra Amrita B, Taga Michiko E

Abstract excerpt

Cobamides are members of the vitamin B12 family of cofactors that function in a variety of metabolic processes and are synthesized only by prokaryotes. Cobamides produced by different organisms vary in the structure of the lower axial ligand. Here we explore the molecular factors that control spe...
