CC   -!- FUNCTION: Component of the methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR) I that
CC       catalyzes the reductive cleavage of methyl-coenzyme M (CoM-S-CH3 or 2-
CC       (methylthio)ethanesulfonate) using coenzyme B (CoB or 7-
CC       mercaptoheptanoylthreonine phosphate) as reductant which results in the
CC       production of methane and the mixed heterodisulfide of CoB and CoM
CC       (CoM-S-S-CoB). This is the final step in methanogenesis.
CC       {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11562}.
CC   -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC       Reaction=coenzyme B + methyl-coenzyme M = coenzyme M-coenzyme B
CC         heterodisulfide + methane; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:12532, ChEBI:CHEBI:16183,
CC         ChEBI:CHEBI:58286, ChEBI:CHEBI:58411, ChEBI:CHEBI:58596; EC=2.8.4.1;
CC         Evidence={ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11562};
CC       PhysiologicalDirection=left-to-right; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:12533;
CC         Evidence={ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11562};
CC   -!- COFACTOR:
CC       Name=coenzyme F430; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:60540;
CC         Evidence={ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11562};
CC       Note=Binds 2 coenzyme F430 non-covalently per MCR complex. Coenzyme
CC       F430 is a yellow nickel porphinoid. Methyl-coenzyme-M reductase is
CC       activated when the enzyme-bound coenzyme F430 is reduced to the Ni(I)
CC       oxidation state. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11562};
CC   -!- PATHWAY: One-carbon metabolism; methyl-coenzyme M reduction; methane
CC       from methyl-coenzyme M: step 1/1. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11562}.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: MCR is a hexamer of two alpha, two beta, and two gamma chains,
CC       forming a dimer of heterotrimers. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11562}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11562}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the methyl-coenzyme M reductase gamma subunit
CC       family. {ECO:0000305}.
