CC -!- FUNCTION: THIS ENZYME COMPLEX CATALYZES THE FINAL STEP IN CC METHANOGENESIS, WHICH IS THE TERMINAL STEP OF ANAEROBIC CC DEGRADATION OF BIOMASS. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: REDUCTION OF METHYL-COENZYME M (2-(METHYLTHIO) CC ETHANESULFONIC ACID) WITH 7-MERCAPTOHEPTANOYLTHREONINE PHOSPHATE CC TO METHANE AND AN HETERODISULFIDE (CH(3)-S-COM + H-S-HTP = CH(4) + CC COM-S-S-HTP). CC -!- COFACTOR: THE ENZYME COMPLEX BINDS TIGHTLY (BUT NOT COVALENTLY) CC TO TWO MOLECULES OF COENZYME F430. F430 IS A YELLOW NICKEL CC PORPHINOID. CC -!- SUBUNIT: HEXAMER OF TWO ALPHA, TWO BETA, AND TWO GAMMA CHAINS. CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: THERE ARE TWO MCR COMPLEXES IN THIS BACTERIA. CC MCR II IS EXPRESSED IN THE EARLY GROWTH PHASE. LATE GROWTH CELLS CC CONTAINS MOSTLY MCR I.
