5-methyltetrahydrofolate:corrinoid/iron-sulfur protein Co-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.258, acsE (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name 5-methyltetrahydrofolate:corrinoid/iron-sulfur protein methyltransferase.[1][2][3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

[Methyl-Co(III) corrinoid Fe-S protein] + tetrahydrofolate a [Co(I) corrinoid Fe-S protein] + 5-methyltetrahydrofolate

This enzyme catalyses the transfer of a methyl group from the N5 position of methyltetrahydrofolate to the 5-methoxybenzimidazolylcobamide cofactor of a corrinoid/Fe-S protein.
