Cobalt chelatase Cobalt chelatase Cobalt chelatase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction The 4 substrates of this enzyme are ATP, hydrogenobyrinic acid a,c-diamide, Co, and HO, whereas its 4 products are ADP, phosphate, cob(II)yrinic acid a,c-diamide, and H. The aerobic cobalt chelatase (aerobic cobalamin biosynthesis pathway) consists of three subunits, CobT, CobN () and CobS (). Cobalamin (vitamin B12) can be complexed with metal via the ATP-dependent reactions (aerobic pathway) (e.g., in "Pseudomonas denitrificans") or via ATP-independent reactions (anaerobic pathway) (e.g., in "Salmonella typhimurium"). The corresponding cobalt chelatases are not homologous. However, aerobic cobalt chelatase subunits CobN and CobS
Lithium cobalt oxide due to the magnitude of this highly exothermic reaction, which can spread to adjacent cells or ignite nearby combustible material. In general, this is seen for many lithium ion battery cathodes. Lithium cobalt oxide Lithium cobalt oxide, sometimes called lithium cobaltate or lithium cobaltite, is a chemical compound with formula . The cobalt atoms are formally in the +3 oxidation state, hence the IUPAC name lithium cobalt(III) oxide. Lithium cobalt oxide is a dark blue or bluish-gray crystalline solid, and is commonly used in the positive electrodes of lithium-ion batteries. The structure of has been studied with numerous techniques including
