CC -!- FUNCTION: Catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from methyl-
CC cobalamin to homocysteine, yielding enzyme-bound cob(I)alamin and
CC methionine. Subsequently, remethylates the cofactor using
CC methyltetrahydrofolate (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=(6S)-5-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + L-homocysteine =
CC (6S)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate + L-methionine; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:11172,
CC ChEBI:CHEBI:18608, ChEBI:CHEBI:57453, ChEBI:CHEBI:57844,
CC ChEBI:CHEBI:58199; EC=2.1.1.13;
CC -!- COFACTOR:
CC Name=methylcob(III)alamin; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:28115;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000250};
CC -!- COFACTOR:
CC Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105; Evidence={ECO:0000250};
CC Note=Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit. {ECO:0000250};
CC -!- PATHWAY: Amino-acid biosynthesis; L-methionine biosynthesis via de novo
CC pathway; L-methionine from L-homocysteine (MetH route): step 1/1.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Modular enzyme with four functionally distinct domains. The
CC isolated Hcy-binding domain catalyzes methyl transfer from free
CC methylcobalamin to homocysteine. The Hcy-binding domain in association
CC with the pterin-binding domain catalyzes the methylation of
CC cob(I)alamin by methyltetrahydrofolate and the methylation of
CC homocysteine. The B12-binding domain binds the cofactor. The AdoMet
CC activation domain binds S-adenosyl-L-methionine. Under aerobic
CC conditions cob(I)alamin can be converted to inactive cob(II)alamin.
CC Reductive methylation by S-adenosyl-L-methionine and flavodoxin
CC regenerates methylcobalamin (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: L-homocysteine is bound via the zinc atom.
CC {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the vitamin-B12 dependent methionine synthase
CC family. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SEQUENCE CAUTION:
CC Sequence=AAA17182.1; Type=Frameshift; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
CC Sequence=CAA22918.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
