FieldValue
NameAdenosylcobinamide-GDP ribazoletransferase
EC_number2.7.8.26
CAS_number137672-85-6

Adenosylcobinamide-GDP ribazoletransferase (, CobS, cobalamin synthase, cobalamin-5'-phosphate synthase, cobalamin (5'-phosphate) synthase) is an enzyme with systematic name adenosylcobinamide-GDP:alpha-ribazole ribazoletransferase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

: (1) adenosylcobinamide-GDP + alpha-ribazole \rightleftharpoons GMP + adenosylcobalamin : (2) adenosylcobinamide-GDP + alpha-ribazole 5'-phosphate \rightleftharpoons GMP + adenosylcobalamin 5'-phosphate

This enzyme is part of the biosynthetic pathway to cobalamin (vitamin B12) in bacteria.
