Accepted name: |
pyridinium-3,5-bisthiocarboxylic acid mononucleotide nickel chelatase |
Reaction: |
Ni(II)-pyridinium-3,5-bisthiocarboxylate mononucleotide = pyridinium-3,5-bisthiocarboxylate mononucleotide + Ni2+ |
Other name(s): |
LarC; P2TMN nickel chelatase |
Systematic name: |
Ni(II)-pyridinium-3,5-bisthiocarboxylate mononucleotide nickel-lyase (pyridinium-3,5-bisthiocarboxylate-mononucleotide-forming) |
Comments: |
This enzyme, found in Lactobacillus plantarum, is involved in the biosynthesis of a nickel-pincer cofactor. It catalyses the insertion of Ni2+ into the cofactor forming a covalent bond between a carbon atom and the nickel atom. |
