IUBMB Comments

The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Eubacterium limosum, is a component of a system that transfers a methyl group from L-proline betaine to tetrahydrofolate, as part of an L-proline betaine degradation pathway. The resulting 5-methyltetrahydrofolate is processed to acetyl-CoA via the Wood—Ljungdahl pathway.

The expected taxonomic range for this enzyme is: Eubacterium limosum
