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 (PubMed:2269306, PubMed:3350018). Neither N-6-mercaptohexanoylthreonine
CC phosphate (H-S-HxoTP) nor N-8-mercaptooctanoylthreonine phosphate (H-
CC SOcoTP) nor any other thiol compound such as CoA or CoM can substitute
CC for CoB as the electron donor (PubMed:3350018).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2269306, ECO:0000269|PubMed:3350018}.
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 ECO:0000269|PubMed:9367957};
CC Note=Binds 2 coenzyme F430 non-covalently per MCR complex. Coenzyme
CC F430 is a yellow nickel porphinoid (PubMed:3350018, PubMed:9367957).
CC Methyl-coenzyme-M reductase is activated when the enzyme-bound coenzyme
CC F430 is reduced to the Ni(I) oxidation state (PubMed:9030728).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:3350018, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9030728,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:9367957};
CC -!- ACTIVITY REGULATION: Methyl-coenzyme M reductase activity is inhibited
CC by 3-nitrooxypropanol (3-NOP) in vitro and in vivo, by oxidation of its
CC active site Ni(I), which stops both growth and methanogenesis
CC (PubMed:27140643). Is also inhibited by the reaction product CoM-S-S-
CC CoB (PubMed:3350018). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27140643,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:3350018}.
CC -!- PATHWAY: One-carbon metabolism; methyl-coenzyme M reduction; methane
CC from methyl-coenzyme M: step 1/1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27140643,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:3350018}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: MCR is a hexamer of two alpha, two beta, and two gamma chains,
CC forming a dimer of heterotrimers. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2269306,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:3350018, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9367957}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23533332}.
CC Note=Under growth limiting conditions on nickel-depleted media, a
CC fraction of 70% of the enzyme is localized close to the cytoplasmic
CC membrane, which implies 'facultative' membrane association of the
CC enzyme. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23533332}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: There are two MCR complexes in this bacteria. MCR
CC II is expressed in the early growth phase. Late growth cells contain
CC mostly MCR I. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2269306}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The MCR reaction has been shown to follow an ordered bi-
CC bi ternary complex mechanism, in which methyl-SCoM must enter the MCR
CC active site prior to CoB for a productive catalysis.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25691570}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the methyl-coenzyme M reductase gamma subunit
CC family. {ECO:0000305}.
