Connection between Multimetal(loid) Methylation in Methanoarchaea and Central Intermediates of Methanogenesis

Methanosarcina mazei methylated antimony, and purified methyltransferase MtaA with cob(I)alamin methylated antimony in vitro among several metalloids.

Methanosarcina mazei methylated antimony, and purified methyltransferase MtaA with cob(I)alamin methylated antimony in vitro among several metalloids.

Key numbers

Methanosarcina mazei methylated antimony, and purified methyltransferase MtaA with cob(I)alamin methylated antimony in vitro among several metalloids.

Methods (brief)

Enzyme and archaeal culture work.

Evidence fitness

Supports in vitro methylation by MtaA. Does not support a dedicated antimony methylase in an infant gut.

Limitations

Not a consumer-product study.
