CC -!- FUNCTION: Catalyzes the two successive C-2 and C-7 methylation
CC reactions involved in the conversion of uroporphyrinogen III to
CC precorrin-2 via the intermediate formation of precorrin-1. It is a step
CC in the biosynthesis of both cobalamin (vitamin B12) and siroheme.
CC Neither uroporphyrin III nor the chlorin (factor I) is a substrate of
CC SUMT. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2546914}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=2 S-adenosyl-L-methionine + uroporphyrinogen III = H(+) +
CC precorrin-2 + 2 S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:32459,

CC adenosyl-L-homocysteine; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:21972, ChEBI:CHEBI:57856,

CC PhysiologicalDirection=left-to-right; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:21973;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000305|PubMed:2546914};
CC -!- ACTIVITY REGULATION: S-adenosylhomocysteine is an extremely powerful
CC competitive inhibitor of the uroporphyrinogen III methylation. SUMT
CC exhibits a substrate inhibition phenomenon at uroporphyrinogen III
CC concentrations above 2 uM; this property might play a regulatory role
CC in cobalamin biosynthesis. The enzyme activity is completely
CC insensitive to feedback inhibition by cobalamin and corrinoid
CC intermediates. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2546914}.
CC -!- BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES:
CC Kinetic parameters:
CC KM=6.3 uM for S-adenosyl-L-methionine {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2546914};
CC KM=1.0 uM for uroporphyrinogen III {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2546914};
CC Vmax=640 nmol/h/mg enzyme {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2546914};
CC Note=kcat is 38 h(-1). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2546914};
CC pH dependence:
CC Optimum pH is 7.7. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2546914};
CC -!- PATHWAY: Cofactor biosynthesis; adenosylcobalamin biosynthesis;
CC precorrin-2 from uroporphyrinogen III: step 1/1.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2546914}.
CC -!- PATHWAY: Porphyrin-containing compound metabolism; siroheme
CC biosynthesis; precorrin-2 from uroporphyrinogen III: step 1/1.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:2546914}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15522295,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:2546914}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Cells lacking this gene are deficient in
CC cobalamin biosynthesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:2546914}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Uroporphyrinogen III is a key intermediate because of
CC its position at the branch point of two divergent pathways. One pathway
CC leads to protoheme, and the other one is the cobalamin and siroheme
CC pathway. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:2546914}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the precorrin methyltransferase family.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- CAUTION: Was originally thought to originate from Pseudomonas
CC denitrificans, but similarity searches show that the sequence is much
CC closer to Sinorhizobium. The entry's taxonomy has been changed.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
