Function[D3E4S5_METRM] Catalyzes the reversible interconversion of 5-formyl-H(4)MPT to methenyl-H(4)MPT(+) (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00486] Publication Abstract from PubMedMethenyltetrahydromethanopterin cyclohydrolase (Mch) is involved in the methanogenesis pathway of archaea as a C1 unit carrier where N(5) -formyl-tetrahydromethanopterin is converted to methenyl-tetrahydromethanopterin. Mch from Methanobrevibacter ruminantium was cloned, purified, crystallized and its crystal structure solved at 1.37 A resolution. A biologically active trimer, the enzyme is composed of two domains including an N-terminal domain of six alpha-helices encompassing a series of four beta-sheets and a predominantly anti-parallel beta-sheet at the C-terminus flanked on one side by alpha-helices. Sequence and structural alignments have helped identify residues involved in substrate binding and trimer formation.
