  • Title: [Vitamin B12 as a biologically active model compound].
    Author: Zagalak B.
    Journal: Naturwissenschaften; 1982 Feb; 69(2):63-74. PubMed ID: 7070534.
    Abstract:
    A critical review on corrinoid biochemistry and physiology is presented. This includes: chemical synthesis of biologically important organocorrinoids and the correlation between their structures and coenzymatic activity; forms, distribution and transport of physiologically active corrinoids; methylcobalamin- and adenosylcobalamin-dependent enzymatic reactions and their physiological functions; and steric course of the adenosylcobalamin-dependent enzymatic rearrangements. Special attention is paid to the mechanisms of adenosylcobalamin-dependent enzymatic reactions.
