Studies of Reaction Mechanisms Requiring Low Molecular Weight Thiol Cofactors
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe methyl-transfer reaction between methylcobalamin and 2-mercapto-ethanesulfonic acid (Coenzyme M) was investigated. We propose that this reaction is a thiyl radical promoted homolytic cleavage of the cobalt-carbon bond rather than the nucleophilic attack by thiolate anion which has been pro
