LITERATURE
physiological function
TsrM can catalyze multiple turnovers in the absence of any reducing agent, but only when it is pre-loaded with methylcobalamin. When hydroxocobalamin or cob(II)alamin is bound to TsrM, a reductant is required to convert it to cob(I)alamin, which can acquire a methyl group directly from S-adenosylmethionine. TrsM is most active when flavodoxin/flavodoxin reductase/NADPH is included in the reaction
