Namesulfopyruvate biosynthesis from phoshoenolpyruvate
TypePATHWAY
DescriptionThis 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.
