# Coenzyme M

Coenzyme M is a coenzyme required for methyl-transfer reactions in the metabolism of archaeal methanogens, and in the metabolism of other substrates in bacteria. It is also a necessary cofactor in the metabolic pathway of alkene-oxidizing bacteria. CoM helps eliminate the toxic epoxides formed from the oxidation of alkenes such as propylene. The structure of this coenzyme was discovered by CD Taylor and RS Wolfe in 1974 while they were studying methanogenesis, the process by which carbon dioxide is transformed into methane in some archaea. The coenzyme is an anion with the formula HSCH $_2$CH $_2$SO$^−$ $_3$. It is named 2-mercaptoethanesulfonate and abbreviated HS–CoM. The cation is unimportant, but the sodium salt is most available. Mercaptoethanesulfonate contains both a thiol, which is the main site of reactivity, and a sulfonate group, which confers solubility in aqueous media.

## Biochemical role
### Methanogenesis

The coenzyme is the C1 donor in methanogenesis. It is converted to methyl-coenzyme M thioether, the thioether CH $_3$SCH $_2$CH $_2$SO$^−$ $_3$, in the penultimate step to methane formation. Methyl-coenzyme M reacts with coenzyme B, 7-thioheptanoylthreoninephosphate, to give a heterodisulfide, releasing methane:
    CH$_3$–S–CoM + HS–CoB → CH$_4$ + CoB–S–S–CoM
This induction is catalyzed by the enzyme methyl-coenzyme M reductase, which restricts cofactor F430 as the prosthetic group.
CH$_3$-S-CoM is produced by the MtaA-catalyzed reaction between a methylated version of monomethylamine corrinoid protein MtmC and HS-CoM. The methylated version of MtmC is in turn produced by a cobamide-dependent methyltransferase that uses trimethylamine (TMA), dimethylamine (DMA), or monomethylamine (MMA) as the mehyl donor.

### Alkene metabolism

Coenzyme M is also used to make acetoacetate from CO$_2$ and propylene or ethylene in aerobic bacteria. Specifically, in bacteria that oxidize alkenes into epoxides. After the propylene (or other alkene) undergoes epoxidation and becomes epoxypropane it becomes electrophilic and toxic. These epoxides react with DNA and proteins, affecting cell function. Alkene-oxidizing bacteria like Xanthobacter autotrophicus use a metabolic pathway in which CoM is conjugated with an aliphatic epoxide. This step creates a nucleophilic compound which can react with CO$_2$. The eventual carboxylation produces acetoacetate, breaking down the propylene.

## Biosynthesis

Bacteria and archaea use different synthetic routes, albeit both starting with phosphoenolpyruvate.
# Calosirus

Calosirus is a genus of beetles belonging to the family Curculionidae.
The genus was first described by Thomson in 1859.
The species of this genus are found in Europe.
Species:
* Calosirus apicalis
* Calosirus terminatus

# Grupo Honorio

Grupo Honorio is a group of Argentine diplomats of the Radical Civic Union. The group has criticized the Argentine embassy in Santiago's attempt to repratriate Mapuche Indigenist activist Facundo Jones Huala who is serving a prison term in Chile. After Chilean minister Izkia Siches spoke about the Mapuche homeland "Wallmapu" in March 2022 Grupo Honorio has declared to be "worried that Chilean officials would be backing separatist aspirations, that could potentially violate the integrity of the territory of Argentina and the Boundary Treaty of 1881".

# Elite Picture Theatre, Nottingham

The Elite Picture Theatre, Nottingham was a cinema open from 1921 to 1977 in Nottingham.

## History

The cinema was designed by the firm of Adamson & Kinns of London in the Beaux-Arts style, with 250 tons of steel frame, concrete floors and expensive white Hathernware tiling facade manufactured by the Hathern Station Brick & Terra Cotta Company, surmounted by statues on the upper portion. The interior was decorated by Fred A. Foster, and the fittings included a concert organ by Willis-Lewis, a ballroom, a restaurant, a tea room and Louis XVI style cafe. The marble terrazzo work, steps and flooring were provided by the Marble Mosaic Company of Bristol.
It opened for business on 22 August 1922 with a luncheon hosted by Mr. T. Shipstone, chairman of the directors of the theatre, with the Mayor of Nottingham, Alderman Herbert Bowles and the Sheriff John H. Freckingham in attendance. There was then a private showing of Mary Pickford in Pollyanna, and the theatre was opened to the public later that day. The first programme included Mary Pickford in Pollyanna and the Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (The Beryl Coronet).
After the cinema closed in 1977 it operated as a bingo hall for around 15 years. It is now a Grade II* listed building.

## The Cinema Organs

The cinema opened with a large pipe organ built either side of the screen at a cost of £10,000 (equivalent to £560,400 in 2023). It was designed by Major F.J. Bullen of London and erected by Willis and Lewis of Brixton. The first musical director was Franklyn Glynn of Wolverhampton. This organ survived until 1929 when it was removed and transferred to Brangwyn Hall, Swansea.
The organ was replaced in 1930 when the cinema was upgraded from silent to talking films and a new instrument was opened. It was built by the firm of John Compton. It was intended to be played whenever a silent film was shown and to connect up other features of the programme.
