Abstract

The trimethylated intermediate of vitamin B12 (corrin) biosynthesis, precorrin-3, was produced from various 13C-enriched isotopomers of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA), using a multiple-enzyme system containing ALA dehydratase, porphobilinogen deaminase, uro'gen III synthetase, and the S-adenosyl-L-methionine-(SAM)-dependent uro'gen III methyltransferase (M-1) and precorrin-2 methyltransferase (M-2) in the presence of [13C]SAM. Structural analysis of the resulting product, precorrin-3, reveals a close similarity to precorrin-2 but with several subtle differences in the conjugated array of C = C and C = N bonds which reflect the presence of the new C-methyl group at C20 and its influence on the electronic distribution in the dipyrrocorphin chromophore. The implications of this structure for corrin biosynthesis are discussed.
