Name | sulfopyruvate biosynthesis from phoshoenolpyruvate |
Type | PATHWAY |
Description | This pathway represents the first three steps in coenzyme M biosynthesis as it occurs in Methanococcus jannaschii. Alternative pathway to sulfopyruvate, from L-phosphoserine via L-cysteate, has been described in Methanosarcina acetivorans. |
