TheBacillus megaterium cbiF, encoding the cobalt‐precorrin‐4S‐adenosyl‐L‐methionine‐dependent transmethylase of the anaerobic cobalamin biosynthetic pathway, has been cloned and overexpressed as a His‐tagged recombinant protein inEscherichia coli. The protein was purified to homogeneity by a combination of metal chelate chromatography and high‐resolution anion‐exchange chromatography. The protein migrated with a subunit mass of 31 kDa by SDS/PAGE and with a molecular mass of 62 kDa by analytical gel filtration, suggesting that the native recombinant protein is a homodimer. The His‐tagged protein was physiologically active as it was able to complement aSalmonella typhimurium cbiFmutant. However, the protein did not bindS‐adenosyl‐L‐methionine with the same avidity as observed with other corrin biosynthetic transmethylases. A crystallisation screen of the purified protein led to the identification of two discrete crystal forms. One of these forms has been characterised and a full data set collected.
