Cobalamins and cobalamin-dependent enzymes in Candida utilis [PDF]
Candida utilis has been shown to contain 4.7 pmol of cobalamin per g of wet cell paste. Purification of the cobalamin showed it to be a mixture of methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin. Two cobalamin-dependent enzyme systems have been found in the yeast: methylcobalamin-dependent methionine biosynthesis and leucine 2,3-aminomutase.

Cobalamin deficiency is a common sequela of chronic enteropathies (CE) in dogs. Studies comparing the intestinal microbiome of CE dogs with cobalamin deficiency to those that are normocobalaminemic are lacking.

In Dogs With Chronic Enteropathies, Can Oral B12 Tablets Be Used to Treat Hypocobalaminaemia?
PICO question In dogs with chronic enteropathy does treatment with oral cobalamin compared to parenteral cobalamin provide serum cobalamin levels greater than 270 ng/L?

Cobalamin (vitamin B12) is a cobalt-containing enzymatic cofactor involved in methionine synthesis. Provided only by select bacteria and archaea in marine systems, this vitamin is known to limit primary production in different oceanic areas ...

Gene identification for the cblD defect of vitamin B12 metabolism [PDF]
Background Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is an essential cofactor in several metabolic pathways. Intracellular conversion of cobalamin to its two coenzymes, adenosylcobalamin in mitochondria and methylcobalamin in the cytoplasm, is necessary for the ...

Vitamin B12 in Cats: Nutrition, Metabolism, and Disease
Cobalamin is a water-soluble molecule that has an important role in cellular metabolism, especially in DNA synthesis, methylation, and mitochondrial metabolism. Cobalamin is bound by intrinsic factor (IF) and absorbed in the ileal tract.

COBALAMIN DEFICIENCY IN THE ELDERLY
Older people are at risk for cobalamin (vitamin B12) deficiency because of a number of common disorders (e.g. autoimmune gastritis) and drugs (e.g. antacids) that may alter its absorption and utilization. The prevalence of cobalamin deficiency increases with age, resulting particularly elevated in frail and institutionalized subjects.

Background: The gold standard for cobalamin deficiency treatment is administration of cobalamin by intramuscular injection. The injection is painful and inconvenient, particularly for elderly persons.

Background Low serum cobalamin concentrations have been associated with ileal malabsorption in dogs with chronic enteropathy. Increased serum methylmalonic acid (MMA) concentrations indicate cobalamin deficiency on a cellular level.

Membrane transport of cobalamin
A wide variety of organisms encode cobalamin-dependent enzymes catalyzing essential metabolic reactions, but the cofactor cobalamin (vitamin B12) is only synthesized by a subset of bacteria and archaea.
