Anaerobic cobalamin biosynthetic cobalt chelatase (CbiK), N-terminal domain. CbiK is part of the cobalt-early path for cobalamin biosynthesis. It catalyzes the insertion of cobalt into the oxidized form of precorrin-2, factor II (sirohydrochlorin), the second step of the anaerobic branch of vitamin B12 biosynthesis. CbiK belongs to the class II family of chelatases and is a homomeric enzyme that does not require ATP for its enzymatic activity.
