General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction immunosorptive depletion of MT2 isozymes from cell-free extracts, extracts of methanol-grown cells depleted of MT2-M lose entirely the ability to carry out conversion of methanol to 2-(methylthio)ethanesulfonate, i.e. methyl-CoM. Methanol:CoM methyl transfer activity is completely restored by addition of purified MT2-M, but no activity is recovered by addition of MT2-A. In contrast, the activity of trimethylamine-grown cell extracts to convert monomethylamine and dimethylamine to methyl-CoM is lost almost entirely by immunosorptive removal of MT2-A. Addition of purified MT2-A but not MT2-M, to the MT2-A-depleted extract fully reconstitutes methyl-CoM formation from both mono- and dimethylamine Methanosarcina barkeri
metabolism MT2-A plays a specific role in metabolism of methylated amine substrates, whereas, MT2-M functions in methane formation from trimethylamine and methanol, while neither of the two MT2 isozymes is involved in methane formation from acetate Methanosarcina barkeri
