Identification
Name:Siroheme
DescriptionSiroheme belongs to the class of Precorrins. These are intermediates formed by methylation at one or more of the four rings prior to the formation of the macrocyclic corrin ring. (inferred from compound structure)Siroheme (or sirohaem) is a heme-like prosthetic group used by some enzymes to accomplish the six-electron reduction of sulfur and nitrogen. Siroheme is synthesized from uroporphyrinogen III, a heme and vitamin B12 precursor. It plays a major role in the sulfur assimilation pathway: converting sulfite to a biologically useful sulfide, which can be incorporated into the organic compound homocysteine. (WikiPedia)

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in methyltransferase activity
Specific function:
Multifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the SAM-dependent methylation of uroporphyrinogen III at position C-2 and C-7 to form precorrin-2 and then position C-12 or C-18 to form trimethylpyrrocorphin 2. It also catalyzes the conversion of precorrin-2 into siroheme. This reaction consists of the NAD- dependent oxidation of precorrin-2 into sirohydrochlorin and its subsequent ferrochelation into siroheme
Gene Name:
cysG
Uniprot ID:
P0AEA8
Molecular weight:
49951
Reactions
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + uroporphyrinogen III = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + precorrin-1.
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + precorrin-1 = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + precorrin-2.
Precorrin-2 + NAD(+) = sirohydrochlorin + NADH.
Siroheme + 2 H(+) = sirohydrochlorin + Fe(2+).
