Mutants of Methanococcus voltae were isolated that were resistant to the coenzyme M (CoM; 2-mercaptoethanesulfonic acid) analog 2-bromoethanesulfonic acid (BES). The mutants displayed a reduced ability to accumulate [35S]BES relative to the sensitive parental strain. BES inhibited methane production from CH3-S-CoM in cell extracts prepared from wild-type sensitive or resistant strains. BES uptake required the presence of both CO2 and H2 and was inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide and several reagents that are known to disrupt energy metabolism. The mutants showed normal uptake of isoleucine and were not cross-resistant to either azaserine or 5-methyltryptophan and, thus, were neither defective in general energy-dependent substrate transport nor envelope permeability. Both HS-CoM and CH3-S-CoM prevented the uptake of BES and protected cells from inhibition by it. We propose that M. voltae has an energy-dependent, carrier-mediated uptake system for HS-CoM and CH3-S-CoM which can also mediate uptake of BES.
