5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole synthase A previously published hypothesis that BluB, involved in cobalamin biosynthesis, is EC 1.16.8.1 (cob(II)yrinic acid a,c-diamide reductase) is now contradicted by newer work ascribing a role in 5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole (DMB) biosynthesis. The BluB protein is related to the nitroreductase family (pfam0881). [Biosynthesis of cofactors, prosthetic groups, and carriers, Heme, porphyrin, and cobalamin]
