Term ID

GO:0044678

Synonyms

• coenzyme M-7-mercaptoheptanoylthreonine-phosphate-heterodisulfide hydrogenase complex
• hydrogen:coenzyme-M-7-mercaptoheptanoylthreonine-phosphate-heterodisulfide oxidoreductase complex

Definition

A protein complex that in Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum is composed of six subunits, and in Methanosarcina barkeri contains is composed of either two subunits or nine subunits. Catalyzes the conversion of coenzyme B, coenzyme M, and methanophenazine to form N-{7-[(2-sulfoethyl)dithio]heptanoyl}-3-O-phospho-L-threonine and dihydromethanophenazine. (3)
