Methyl CoM reductase (MCR;Coenzyme-B sulfoethylthiotransferase) (EC 2.8.4.1) : all
biologically generated methane on earth derives from the catalytic activity of MCR in
methanogenic microbes. It also appears to catalyze anaerobic methane oxidation. MCR
catalyzes the conversion of methylcoenzyme M (methyl-SCoM) and N-7- mercaptohep-
tanoylthreonine phosphate (CoBSH) to methane and the CoB-SS-CoM heterodisulide
(Ragsdale 2003 ; Jaun and Thauer 2007 ).

Carbon monoxide (CO) dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.99.2) : catalyzes the reversible oxidation of
CO to CO 2 , allowing anaerobic microbes to grow with CO or CO 2 as their sole carbon
source and with CO as the only energy supply (Lindahl and Graham 2007 )

Acetyl CoA synthase (EC 6.2.1.1) : interacts tightly with CODH to form a heterotetrameric (a
2b2) machine that couples to catalyze acetyl-CoA synthesis from CO 2 , a methyl group donated
by the methylated corrinoid iron-sulfur protein (CFeSP), and CoA (Doukov et al. 2008 ).

covalent adducts with DNA, to lactate (Sukdeo et al. 2007 ).
