| Description | Coenzyme B12 (adenosylcobalamin; AdoCbl; 5'-Deoxyadenosylcobalamin) is a form of vitamin B12. It belongs to the corrinoid group of compounds containing a corrin macrocycle and are produced only by certain bacteria and archaea. It is a cofactor for various enzymes, including mutases, eliminases, aminomutases, and reductases. These enzymes catalyze reactions that generate free radicals through the release of the adenosyl group, allowing usually unreactive molecules to become reactive. Genetic mutations in enzymes synthesizing Coenzyme B12 lead to Coenzyme B12 deficiency and methylmalonic aciduria. |

| Definition | ChEBI: A member of the class of cobalamins that is vitamin B12 in which the cyano group is replaced by a 5'-deoxyadenos-5'-yl moiety. It is one of the two metabolically active form of vitamin B12. |
| Definition | Coenzyme B12 (5'-Deoxy-5'-adenosylcobalamin or Ado-Cbl) is the largest molecule among the B type vitamins. It is an essential cofactor in many biological rearrangement reactions. Coenzyme B12 activates enzymes such as methionine synthase (MetH), methyl-malonyl-CoA mutase (MutAB), and glycerol dehydratase (DhaB). Biologically, coenzyme B12 is one of the two main types of vitamin B12, adenosyl-cobalamin and methyl-cobalamin, and the former is highly preferred for many enzymes, including glycerol and diol dehydratases[1]. |
| Manufacturing Process | Isopropylidine adenosine was converted to the p-toluene sulphonyl (tosyl)ester by reaction with tosyl chlorine solution, following the method of Clark etal. (1951) [J. Chem. Soc. 2952]. Because of its tendency to cyclization, thereagent was used directly it was ready. A reaction flask with separatingfunnels was set up in such a way that the whole system could be evacuatedand filled with pure nitrogen two or three times, to eliminate all oxygen, andreagents could then be added when desired, in the closed system. The flask contained 700.0 mg hydroxocobalamin in 20 ml of water, one funnel200.0 mg sodium borohydride in 10 ml of water, and another the crudeisopropylidine adenosine tosyl ester made from 500 mg isopropylidineadenosine dissolved in 10 ml of 50% aqueous methanol. On adding theborohydride to the vitamin, the color changed instantly from red to brown,then slowly to a greenish black. After 15 min the isopropylidine adenosinetosyl ester was added, and the colour slowly changed to a red-brown. After 45min at room temperature air was admitted and the mixture was shaken toreoxidise any remaining reduced vitamin B12. The alkaline solution wasneutralized with dilute hydrochloric acid and extracted with phenol carbontetrachloride 3:1 in small portions till the aqueous layer was nearly colorless.The combined extracts were washed with water, mixed with about ten parts ofcarbon tetrachloride-acetone 10:1 and shaken with small portions of water tillall red color was removed. The product was purified by chromatography on columns of DEAE (diethylaminoethyl) cellulose (3 x 1) followed by CM (carboxymethyl) cellulose (6 x1), developed with water. Nearly all the color washed quickly through DEAEcellulose. The effluent and washes were applied to the CM cellulose column,which was further developed with water. Elution was continued as long as thisfraction continued to emerge, in a total of 850 ml. One half of this fraction(425 ml) was concentrated to a few ml under reduced pressure; it crystallizedslowly after adding acetone to slight turbidity. So cobamamide was obtained. |
| Therapeutic Function | Anabolic, Analgesic |
| Biotechnological Production | There exist two distinctive routes for the biosynthesis of coenzyme B12, namely oxygen-dependent (encoded by cob operons) and oxygen-independent (by CBI operons) pathways. Their requirement of molecular oxygen during synthesis and the point at which cobalt is inserted into the corrin ring. De novo coenzyme B12 biosynthesis is limited to some bacteria and archaea. The aerobic pathway is present in Pseudomonas denitrificans, Sinorhizobium meliloti, Rhodobacter sphaeroides and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. At the same time, the anaerobic one is present in Salmonella typhimurium, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Citrobacter amalonaticus, Bacillus megaterium, Propionibacterium shermanii and Lactobacillus reuteri. |
| General Description | Vitamin B12 cobalamin refers to a group of chemically-related cobalt containing molecules. The physiologically active forms of vitamin B12 include methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin, whereas hydroxocobalamin (vitamin B12a, OHCbl) and cyanocobalamin (CNCbl) are storage and delivery forms. |
| Agricultural Uses | Cobamide enzyme is the cobalt complex formed between the cobalt-porphyrin ring structure and the nucleotide in vitamin B12 co-enzyme. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions | Vitamin B12 cobalamin is involved in DNA synthesis and fatty acid synthesis. It also plays a vital role as a coenzyme in the conversion of mitochondrial methylmalonyl co-enzyme A to succinyl co-enzyme A. |
