This entry stands for a family of enzymes that have been characterized from acetogenic bacteria and archaeal species. Different members of this family have different substrate specificity. In the methanogenic archaeon Methermicoccus shengliensis the enzyme participates in methanogenesis from methoxylated aromatic compounds, while in acetogenic bacteria and in non-methanogenic archaea it participates in methoxydotrophic growth. Most of the enzymes have a wide specificity and were shown to act on a large number of methoxylated aromatic compounds, carrying a methoxy group at positions 2, 3 or 4 of the aromatic ring. Methylation of the corrinoid protein requires the central cobalt to be in the Co(I) state; during methylation the cobalt is oxidized to the Co(III) state.
