The biosynthesis of many vitamins and coenzymes has often proved difficult to elucidate due to a combination of low abundance and kinetic lability of the pathway intermediates. Through a serial reconstruction of the cobalamin (vitamin B12) pathway in E. coli, and by His-tagging the terminal enzyme in the reaction sequence, we have observed that many unstable intermediates can be isolated as tightly-bound enzyme-product complexes. Together, these approaches have been used to extract intermediates between precorrin-4 and hydrogenobyrinic acid in their free acid form and permitted the delineation of the overall reaction catalysed by CobL, including the formal elucidation of precorrin-7 as a metabolite. Furthermore, a substrate-carrier protein, CobE, has been identified, which can also be used to stabilize some of the transient metabolic intermediates and enhance their onward transformation. The tight association of pathway intermediates with enzymes provides evidence for a form of metabolite channeling.
