  <name>Methylphosphonate</name>
  <description>Methylphosphonate is a member of the chemical class known as Organic Phosphonic Acids and Derivatives. These are organic compounds containing phosphonic acid or a derivative thereof. . Phosphonates (Pn) are a large class of organophosphorus molecules that have direct carbon-phosphorus (C-P) bonds in place of the carbon-oxygen-phosphorus ester bond. In bacteria two pathways exist for Pn breakdown for use as a P source: the phosphonatase and C-P lyase pathways. These pathways differ both in regard to their substrate specificity and their cleavage mechanism. The phosphonatase pathway acts on the natural Pn alpha-aminoethylphosphonate (AEPn). In a two-step process it leads to cleavage of the C-P bond by a hydrolysis reaction requiring an adjacent carbonyl group. In contrast the C-P lyase pathway has a broad substrate specificity. It leads to cleavage of substituted Pn (such as AEPn) as well as unsubstituted Pn by a mechanism involving redox or radical chemistry. Due to its broad substrate specificity, the C-P lyase pathway is generally thought to be responsible for the breakdown of Pn herbicides (such as glyphosate) by bacteria. </description>

      <description>The pathway of methylphosphonate degradation starts with methylphosphonate being degrade by an ATP driven methylphosphonate degradation complex resulting in a alpha-D-ribose-1-methylphosphonate-5-triphosphate. This compound in turn is degraded by a water driven RPnTP hydrolase resulting in the release of a hydrogen ion, a pyrophosphate and a alpha-Dribose-1-methylphosphonate 5-phosphate. The latter compound is then involved with a carbon-phosphorous lyase resulting in the release of a methane and a 5-phospho-alpha-D-ribose 1,2-cyclic phosphate. This compound in turn gets degraded by a water driven 5-phospho-alpha-D-ribosyl 1,2-cyclic phosphate phosphodiesterase resulting in the release of a hydrogen ion and a alpha-D-ribose 1,5-biphosphate.</description>
