Abstract
Halide perovskites are a novel class of semiconductors that have attracted great interest in recent decades due to their peculiar properties of interest for optoelectronics. In fact, their use ranges from the field of sensors and light emitters to ionizing radiation detectors. Since 2015, ionizing radiation detectors exploiting perovskite films as active media have been developed. Recently, it has also been demonstrated that such devices can be suitable for medical and diagnostic applications. This review collects most of the recent and innovative publications regarding solid-state devices for the detection of X-rays, neutrons, and protons based on perovskite thin and thick films in order to show that this type of material can be used to design a new generation of devices and sensors. Thin and thick films of halide perovskites are indeed excellent candidates for low-cost and large-area device applications, where the film morphology allows the implementation on flexible devices, which is a cutting-edge topic in the sensor sector.

Abstract
The inorganic chemistry of the cobalt corrinoids, derivatives of vitamin B12, is reviewed, with particular emphasis on equilibrium constants for, and kinetics of, their axial ligand substitution reactions. The role the corrin ligand plays in controlling and modifying the properties of the metal ion is emphasised. Other aspects of the chemistry of these compounds, including their structure, corrinoid complexes with metals other than cobalt, the redox chemistry of the cobalt corrinoids and their chemical redox reactions, and their photochemistry are discussed. Their role as catalysts in non-biological reactions and aspects of their organometallic chemistry are briefly mentioned. Particular mention is made of the role that computational methods - and especially DFT calculations - have played in developing our understanding of the inorganic chemistry of these compounds. A brief overview of the biological chemistry of the B12-dependent enzymes is also given for the reader's convenience.

Abstract
The evolution of cancers to resist existing therapeutic strategies has constantly led researchers to design next-generation therapeutics. Research on nanomedicine holds significant potential in developing newer cancer therapeutics. Nanozymes bearing the properties of enzymes can be promising anticancer agents due to their tunable enzyme-like properties. In one such approach, a biocompatible cobalt-single-atom nanozyme (Co-SAs@NC) bearing catalase and oxidase-like activities that function in cascade at the tumor microenvironment has been reported recently. The current highlight discusses this investigation to unveil Co-SAs@NC's mechanism in tumor cell apoptosis through in vivo studies.

Abstract
Vitamin B12, also known as the anti-pernicious anemia factor, is an essential micronutrient totally dependent on dietary sources that is commonly integrated with food supplements. Four vitamin B12 forms-cyanocobalamin, hydroxocobalamin, 5'-deoxyadenosylcobalamin, and methylcobalamin-are currently used for supplementation and, here, we provide an overview of their biochemical role, bioavailability, and efficacy in different dosage forms. Since the effective quantity of vitamin B12 depends on the stability of the different forms, we further provide a review of their main reactivity and stability under exposure to various environmental factors (e.g., temperature, pH, light) and the presence of some typical interacting compounds (oxidants, reductants, and other water-soluble vitamins). Further, we explore how the manufacturing process and storage affect B12 stability in foods, food supplements, and medicines and provide a summary of the data published to date on the content-related quality of vitamin B12 products on the market. We also provide an overview of the approaches toward their stabilization, including minimization of the destabilizing factors, addition of proper stabilizers, or application of some (innovative) technological processes that could be implemented and contribute to the production of high-quality vitamin B12 products.

Abstract
Nutritional deficiency and genetic errors that impair the transport, absorption, and utilization of vitamin B12 (B12) lead to hematological and neurological manifestations. The cblC disease (cobalamin complementation type C) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations and epi-mutations in the MMACHC gene and the most common inborn error of B12 metabolism. Pathogenic mutations in MMACHC disrupt enzymatic processing of B12, an indispensable step before micronutrient utilization by the two B12-dependent enzymes methionine synthase (MS) and methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MUT). As a result, patients with cblC disease exhibit plasma elevation of homocysteine (Hcy, substrate of MS) and methylmalonic acid (MMA, degradation product of methylmalonyl-CoA, substrate of MUT). The cblC disorder manifests early in childhood or in late adulthood with heterogeneous multi-organ involvement. This review covers current knowledge on the cblC disease, structure–function relationships of the MMACHC protein, the genotypic and phenotypic spectra in humans, experimental disease models, and promising therapies.

Abstract
Radiation detectors are widely used in physics, materials science, chemistry, and biology. Halide perovskites are known for their superior properties including tunable bandgaps and chemical compositions, high defect tolerance, solution-processable synthesis of films and crystals, and high carrier diffusion length. Recently, halide perovskites have attracted enormous interest as particle radiation detectors for both charged (α and β) and uncharged (neutrons) particles. Solid-state detectors based on single crystal perovskites can detect α particles and thermal neutrons with energy-resolved spectra. Halide perovskite scintillators are also able to detect β particles and fast neutrons. In this review, we briefly introduce the fundamentals of radiation detection and summarize the recent progress on halide perovskite detectors for particle radiation.

Abstract
AbstractChlororhodibalamin (ClRhbl), a rhodium analogue of vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin), was prepared in 84% yield by metalation of the metal-free B12 ligand hydrogenobalamin using the RhI-complex [Rh(CO)2Cl]2. ClRhbl was identified and characterized by UV/Vis, circular dichroism, high-resolution mass and heteronuclear NMR spectra. The RhIII-corrin ClRhbl features the ‘base-on’ architecture of vitamin B12. X-ray analysis of single crystals of ClRhbl have revealed its detailed 3D-geometry and close structural similarity to the CoIII-analogue chlorocobalamin (ClCbl). ClRhbl is a versatile starting material for the preparation of other rhodibalamins, among them the organometallic derivatives adenosylrhodibalamin and methylrhodibalamin, the Rh analogues of the important coenzyme and cofactor forms of B12, adenosylcobalamin and methylcobalamin.

Thiolatocobalamins repair the activity of pathogenic variants of the human cobalamin processing enzyme CblC. Biochimie 2020; 183:108-125.

Abstract
Thiolatocobalamins are a class of cobalamins comprised of naturally occurring and synthetic ligands. Glutathionylcobalamin (GSCbl) occurs naturally in mammalian cells, and also as an intermediate in the glutathione-dependent dealkylation of methylcobalamin (MeCbl) to form cob(I)alamin by pure recombinant CblC from C. elegans. Glutathione-driven deglutathionylation of GSCbl was demonstrated both in mammalian as well as in C. elegans CblC. Dethiolation is orders of magnitude faster than dealkylation of Co-C bonded cobalamins, which motivated us to investigate two synthetic thiolatocobalamins as substrates to repair the enzymatic activity of pathogenic CblC variants in humans. We report the synthesis and kinetic characterization of cysteaminylcobalamin (CyaCbl) and 2-mercaptopropionylglycinocobalamin (MpgCbl). Both CyaCbl and MpgCbl were obtained in high purity (90-95%) and yield (78-85%). UV-visible spectral properties agreed with those reported for other thiolatocobalamins with absorbance maxima observed at 372 nm and 532 nm. Both CyaCbl and MpgCbl bound to wild type human recombinant CblC inducing spectral blue-shifts characteristic of the respective base-on to base-off transitions. Addition of excess glutathione (GSH) resulted in rapid elimination of the β-ligand to give aquacobalamin (H2OCbl) as the reaction product under aerobic conditions. Further, CyaCbl and MpgCbl underwent spontaneous dethiolation thereby repairing the loss of activity of pathogenic variants of human CblC, namely R161G and R161Q. We posit that thiolatocobalamins could be exploited therapeutically for the treatment of inborn errors of metabolism that impair processing of dietary and supplemental cobalamin forms. While these disorders are targets for newborn screening in some countries, there is currently no effective treatment available to patients.

Abstract
We use picosecond time-resolved polarized X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) measurements to probe the structure of the long-lived photoexcited state of methylcobalamin (MeCbl) and the cob(II)alamin photoproduct formed following photoexcitation of adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl, coenzyme B12). For MeCbl, we used 520 nm excitation and a time delay of 100 ps to avoid the formation of cob(II)alamin. We find only small spectral changes in the equatorial and axial directions, which we interpret as arising from small (<∼0.05 Å) changes in both the equatorial and axial distances. This confirms expectations based on prior UV-visible transient absorption measurements and theoretical simulations. We do not find evidence for the significant elongation of the Co-C bond reported by Subramanian [ J. Phys. Chem. Lett. 2018 , 9 , 1542 - 1546 ] following 400 nm excitation. For AdoCbl, we resolve the difference XANES contributions along three unique molecular axes by exciting with both 540 and 365 nm light, demonstrating that the spectral changes are predominantly polarized along the axial direction, consistent with the loss of axial ligation. These data suggest that the microsecond "recombination product" identified by Subramanian et al. is actually the cob(II)alamin photoproduct that is produced following bond homolysis of MeCbl with 400 nm excitation. Our results highlight the pronounced advantage of using polarization-selective transient X-ray absorption for isolating structural dynamics in systems undergoing atomic displacements that are strongly correlated to the exciting optical polarization.

Abstract
Corrinoid cofactors such as cobalamin are used by many enzymes and are essential for most living organisms. Therefore, there is broad interest in investigating cobalamin-protein interactions with molecular dynamics simulations. Previously developed parameters for cobalamins are based mainly on crystal structure data. Here, we report CHARMM-compatible force field parameters for several corrinoids developed from quantum mechanical calculations. We provide parameters for corrinoids in three oxidation states, Co3+, Co2+, and Co1+, and with various axial ligands. Lennard-Jones parameters for the cobalt center in the Co(II) and Co(I) states were optimized using a helium atom probe, and partial atomic charges were obtained with a combination of natural population analysis (NPA) and restrained electrostatic potential (RESP) fitting approaches. The Force Field Toolkit was used to optimize all bonded terms. The resulting parameters, determined solely from calculations of cobalamin alone or in water, were then validated by assessing their agreement with density functional theory geometries and by analyzing molecular dynamics simulation trajectories of several corrinoid proteins for which X-ray crystal structures are available. In each case, we obtained excellent agreement with the reference data. In comparison to previous CHARMM-compatible parameters for cobalamin, we observe a better agreement for the fold angle and lower RMSD in the cobalamin binding site. The approach described here is readily adaptable for developing CHARMM-compatible force-field parameters for other corrinoids or large biomolecules.

Abstract
B12 antivitamins are important and robust tools for investigating the biological roles of vitamin B12 . Here, the potential antivitamin B12 2,4-difluorophenylethynylcobalamin (F2PhEtyCbl) was prepared, and its 3D structure was studied in solution and in the crystal. Chemically inert F2PhEtyCbl resisted thermolysis of its Co-C bond at 100 °C, was stable in bright daylight, and also remained intact upon prolonged storage in aqueous solution at room temperature. It binds to the human B12 -processing enzyme CblC with high affinity (KD =130 nm) in the presence of the cosubstrate glutathione (GSH). F2PhEtyCbl withstood tailoring by CblC, and it also stabilized the ternary complex with GSH. The crystal structure of this inactivated assembly provides first insight into the binding interactions between an antivitamin B12 and CblC, as well as into the organization of GSH and a base-off cobalamin in the active site of this enzyme.

Abstract
Cellular uptake of vitamin B12-cisplatin conjugates was estimated via detection of their metal constituents (Co, Pt, and Re) by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Vitamin B12 (cyano-cob(iii)alamin) and aquo-cob(iii)alamin [Cbl-OH2](+), which differ in the β-axial ligands (CN(-) and H2O, respectively), were included as control samples. The results indicated that B12 derivatives delivered cisplatin to both cellular cytosol and nuclei with an efficiency of one third compared to the uptake of free cisplatin cis-[Pt(II)Cl2(NH3)2]. In addition, uptake of charged B12 derivatives including [Cbl-OH2](+), [{Co}-CN-{cis-PtCl(NH3)2}](+), [{Re}-{Co}-CN-{cis-PtCl(NH3)2}](+), and [{Co}-CN-{trans-Pt(Cyt)(NH3)2}](2+) (Cyt = cytarabin) was high compared to neutral B12, which implied the existence of an additional internalization pathway for charged B12 vitamin analogs. The affinities of the charged B12 derivatives to the B12 transporters HC, IF and TC were similar to that of native vitamin B12.

Abstract
The evolution of resistance to traditional platinum-based anticancer drugs has compelled researchers to investigate the cytostatic properties of alternative transition metal-based compounds. The anticancer potential of cobalt complexes has been extensively studied over the last three decades, and much time has been devoted to understanding their mechanisms of action. This perspective catalogues the development of antiproliferative cobalt complexes, and provides an in depth analysis of their mode of action. Early studies on simple cobalt coordination complexes, Schiff base complexes, and cobalt-carbonyl clusters will be documented. The physiologically relevant redox properties of cobalt will be highlighted and the role this plays in the preparation of hypoxia selective prodrugs and imaging agents will be discussed. The use of cobalt-containing cobalamin as a cancer specific delivery agent for cytotoxins will also be described. The work summarised in this perspective shows that the biochemical and biophysical properties of cobalt-containing compounds can be fine-tuned to produce new generations of anticancer agents with clinically relevant efficacies.

Abstract
This Perspective Article highlights recent theoretical developments, and summarizes the current understanding of the photolytic properties of cobalamins from a computational point of view. The primary focus is on two alkyl cobalamins, methylcobalamin (MeCbl) and adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl), as well as two non-alkyl cobalamins, cyanocobalamin (CNCbl) and hydroxocobalamin (HOCbl). Photolysis of alkyl cobalamins involves low-lying singlet excited states where photodissociation of the Co-C bond leads to formation of singlet-born alkyl/cob(ii)alamin radical pairs (RPs). Potential energy surfaces (PESs) associated with cobalamin low-lying excited states as functions of both axial bonds, provide the most reliable tool for initial analysis of their photochemical and photophysical properties. Due to the complexity, and size limitations associated with the cobalamins, the primary method for calculating ground state properties is density functional theory (DFT), while time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) is used for electronically excited states. For alkyl cobalamins, energy pathways on the lowest singlet surface, connecting metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) and ligand field (LF) minima, can be associated with photo-homolysis of the Co-C bond observed experimentally. Additionally, energy pathways between minima and seams associated with crossing of S1/S0 surfaces, are the most efficient for internal conversion (IC) to the ground state. Depending on the specific cobalamin, such IC may involve simultaneous elongation of both axial bonds (CNCbl), or detachment of axial base followed by corrin ring distortion (MeCbl). The possibility of intersystem crossing, and the formation of triplet RPs is also discussed based on Landau-Zener theory.

Abstract
Hydroxocobalamin is a potential biocompatible source of photogenerated hydroxyl radicals localized in time and space. The photogeneration of hydroxyl radicals is studied using time-resolved spectroscopy and theoretical simulations. Radicals are only generated for wavelengths <350 nm through a mechanism that involves competition between prompt dissociation and internal conversion. Characterization of the lowest-lying singlet potential energy surface provides insight into the photochemistry of hydroxocobalamin and other cobalamin compounds.

Abstract
Nitrosylcobalamin (NOCbl) is readily formed when Co(II)balamin reacts with nitric oxide (NO) gas. NOCbl has been implicated in the inhibition of various B12-dependent enzymes, as well as in the modulation of blood pressure and of the immunological response. Previous studies revealed that among the known biologically relevant cobalamin species, NOCbl possesses the longest bond between the Co ion and the axially bound 5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole base, which was postulated to result from a strong trans influence exerted by the NO ligand. In this study, various spectroscopic (electronic absorption, circular dichroism, magnetic circular dichroism, and resonance Raman) and computational (density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT) techniques were used to generate experimentally validated electronic structure descriptions for the "base-on" and "base-off" forms of NOCbl. Further insights into the principal Co-ligand bonding interactions were obtained by carrying out natural bond orbital analyses. Collectively, our results indicate that the formally unoccupied Co 3dz(2) orbital engages in a highly covalent bonding interaction with the filled NO π* orbital and that the Co-NO bond is strengthened further by sizable π-backbonding interactions that are not present in any other Co(III)Cbl characterized to date. Because of the substantial NO(-) to Co(III) charge donation, NOCbl is best described as a hybrid of Co(III)-NO(-) and Co(II)-NO(•) resonance structures. In contrast, our analogous computational characterization of a related species, superoxocobalamin, reveals that in this case a Co(III)-O2(-) description is adequate due to the larger oxidizing power of O2 versus NO. The implications of our results with respect to the unusual structural features and thermochromism of NOCbl and the proposed inhibition mechanisms of B12-dependent enzymes by NOCbl are discussed.

Abstract
Three non-native derivatives of vitamin B12 with imidazole, ethylenediamine, and pyrazine as cobalt(III) β-ligands were characterized by applying the BP/def2-TZVP density functional method. The binding of all three ligands is thermodynamically favorable. It is proposed that their synthesis might be possible from aquacobalamin as a starting form of vitamin B12, as has been done in the case of an imidazole derivative of B12 (Hannibal et al. Inorg. Chem. 2007, 46, 3613-3618). Furthermore, the possibility of the formation of their conjugates with cisplatin is investigated. The proposed β-ligands may serve as bridging ligands, binding to the platin ion as N-donors. In parallel, the calculations are done for the previously synthetized B12-cisplatin adduct with CN(-) as a bridging ligand and are compared with available experimental data, allowing assessment of the applied computational protocol. A good agreement between the computed and experimental structural parameters is obtained. In each of the studied structures, the Co-β-ligand bond is weaker than the Pt-β-ligand bond.

Abstract
Cob(I)alamin reacts with phenylacetylene to produce two diastereomers in which the organic ligand is coordinated to the upper (β) and lower (α) face of the corrin ring, respectively. The isomers were separated chromatographically and characterised by ESI-MS and, in the case of the β isomer, by (1)H and (13)C NMR. Only the β isomer crystallised and its molecular structure, determined by X-ray diffraction, shows that the organic ligand coordinates Co(III) through the β carbon of the phenylvinyl ligand. The Co-C bond length is 2.004(8) Å while the Co-N bond length to the trans 5,6-dimethylbenzimidazole (dmbzm) base is 2.217(8) Å, one of the longest Co-Ndmbzm bond lengths known in an organocobalamin. Unlike benzylcobalamin (BzCbl), phenylvinylcobalamin (PhVnCbl) is stable towards homolysis. DFT calculations (BP86/TZVP) on model compounds of BzCbl and PhVnCbl show that the Co-C bond dissociation energy for homolysis to Co(II) and an organic radical in the former is 8 kcal mol(-1) lower than in the latter. An analysis of the electron density at the Co-C bond critical point using Bader's QTAIM approach shows that the Co-C bond in PhVnCbl is shorter, stronger and somewhat more covalent than that in BzCbl, and has some multiple bond character. Together with calculations that show that the benzyl radical is more stable than the phenylvinyl radical, this rationalises the stability of PhVnCbl compared to BzCbl. The phenylvinyl ligand has a large trans influence. The pKa for deprotonation of dmbzm and its coordination by the metal in β-PhVnCbl is 4.60 ± 0.01, one of the highest values reported to date in cobalamin chemistry. The displacement of dmbzm ligand by CN(-) in β-PhVnCbl occurs with log K = 0.7 ± 0.1; the trans influence order of C-donor ligands is therefore CN(-) < CCH < CHCH2 = PhVn < Me < Et.

Abstract
While the geometric and electronic structures of vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin, CNCbl) and its reduced derivatives Co(2+)cobalamin (Co(2+)Cbl) and Co(1+)cobalamin (Co(1+)Cbl(-)) are now reasonably well established, their vibrational properties, in particular their resonance Raman (rR) spectra, have remained quite poorly understood. The goal of this study was to establish definitive assignments of the corrin-based vibrational modes that dominate the rR spectra of vitamin B12 in its Co(3+), Co(2+), and Co(1+) oxidation states. rR spectra were collected for all three species with laser excitation in resonance with the most intense corrin-based π → π* transitions. These experimental data were used to validate the computed vibrational frequencies, eigenvector compositions, and relative rR intensities of the normal modes of interest as obtained by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Importantly, the computational methodology employed in this study successfully reproduces the experimental observation that the frequencies and rR excitation profiles of the corrin-based vibrational modes vary significantly as a function of the cobalt oxidation state. Our DFT results suggest that this variation reflects large differences in the degree of mixing between the occupied Co 3d orbitals and empty corrin π* orbitals in CNCbl, Co(2+)Cbl, and Co(1+)Cbl(-). As a result, vibrations mainly involving stretching of conjugated C-C and C-N bonds oriented along one axis of the corrin ring may, in fact, couple to a perpendicularly polarized electronic transition. This unusual coupling between electronic transitions and vibrational motions of corrinoids greatly complicates an assignment of the corrin-based normal modes of vibrations on the basis of their rR excitation profiles.

Abstract
A systematic study of [M(H(2)O)(n)(OH)(m)](q+) complexes of Te(IV) and Bi(III) in solution has been undertaken by means of quantum mechanical calculations. The results have been compared with previous information obtained for the same type of Po(IV) complexes ( J. Phys. Chem. B 2009 , 113 , 487 ) to get insight into the similarities and differences among them from a theoretical view. The evolution of the coordination number (n + m) with the degree of hydrolysis (m) for the stable species shows a systematic decrease regardless the ion. A general behavior on the M-O distances when passing from the gas phase to solution, represented by the polarizable continuum model (PCM), is also observed: R(M-O) values corresponding to water molecules decrease, while those of the hydroxyl groups slightly increase. The hydration numbers of aquaions are between 8 and 9 for the three cations, whereas hydrolyzed species behave differently for Te(IV) and Po(IV) than for Bi(III), which shows a stronger trend to dehydrate with the hydrolysis. On the basis of the semicontinuum solvation model, the hydration Gibbs energies are -800 (exptl -834 kcal/mol), -1580 and -1490 kcal/mol for Bi(III), Te(IV), and Po(IV), respectively. Wave function analysis of M-O and O-H bonds along the complexes has been carried out by means of quantum theory of atoms in molecule (QTAIM). Values of electron density and its Laplacian at bond critical points show different behaviors among the cations in aquaions. An interesting conclusion of the QTAIM analysis is that the prospection of the water O-H bond is more sensitive than the M-O bond to the ion interaction. A global comparison of cation properties in solution supplies a picture where the Po(IV) behavior is between those of Te(IV) and Bi(III), but closer to the first one.

Abstract
The societal importance of uranium complexes containing the uranyl moiety [O═U═O](2+) continues to grow with the ongoing international nuclear enterprise and associated accumulating legacy waste. Further studies of the electronic structure of uranyl and its analogues are imperative for the development of crucial technologies, including lanthanide/actinide extractants and chemical and environmental remediation methodologies. Actinide oxo halides are a subset of the growing class of actinyl (uranyl) analogues. The understanding of their electronic structures links the detailed spectroscopic studies of uranyl, indicating the role of the pseudocore 6p orbitals in U-O bonding, to hypotheses about the 6p orbitals' role in the chemical bonding of uranyl analogues. These actinide oxo halides are a very small class of actinide compounds that present the inverse trans influence (ITI). This class of complexes was, until recently, limited to two crystallographically characterized compounds, namely, [UCl(5)O][PPh(4)] and [PaCl(5)O][NEt(4)](2). These complexes are important because they give a readily and clearly defined experimental observable: the difference between the M-X(trans) and M-X(cis) (here X = Cl) bond lengths in the solid state. This bond metric is a sensitive probe for the role of 6p, 6d, and 5f orbitals, as well as electrostatic interactions, in determining their electronic structure. This Viewpoint Article reviews the theoretical, experimental, and synthetic work on the ITI in actinide complexes and contextualizes it within broader studies on the electronic structure of uranyl and its analogues. Furthermore, our recent work on the ITI in high-valent uranium(V/VI) oxo and imido complexes is described as a whole. This work builds on the extant synthetic literature on the ITI and provides design parameters for the synthesis and characterization of high-valent uranium-ligand multiple bonds.

Abstract
We report the electrophilic Fukui function analysis based on density functional reactivity theory (DFRT) to demonstrate the feasibility of the proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) mechanism. To characterize the charge propensity of an electron-transfer site other than the proton-acceptor site of the coenzyme B12-tyrosine complex, several structural models (ranging from minimal to actual enzyme scaffolds) have been employed at DFT and QM/MM computations. It is shown, based on the methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (MCM) enzyme that substrate binding plays a significant role in displacing the phenoxyl proton of the tyrosine (Y89), which initiates the electron transfer from Y89 to coenzyme B12. PCET-based enzymatic reaction implies that one electron-reduced form of the AdoCbl cofactor induces the cleavage of the Co-C bond, as an alternative to its neutral analogue, which can assist in understanding the origin of the observed trillion-fold rate enhancement in MCM enzyme.

Abstract
Vitamin B12, the "antipernicious anaemia factor", is a crystallisable cobalt-complex, which belongs to a group of unique "complete" corrinoids, named cobalamins (Cbl). In humans, instead of the "vitamin", two organometallic B12-forms are coenzymes in two metabolically important enzymes: Methyl-cobalamin, the cofactor of methionine synthase, and coenzyme B12 (adenosyl-cobalamin), the cofactor of methylmalonyl-CoA mutase. The cytoplasmatic methionine synthase catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from N-methyl-tetrahydrofolate to homocysteine to yield methionine and to liberate tetrahydrofolate. In the mitochondrial methylmalonyl-CoA mutase a radical process transforms methylmalonyl-CoA (a remains e.g. from uneven numbered fatty acids) into succinyl-CoA, for further metabolic use. In addition, in the human mitochondria an adenosyl-transferase incorporates the organometallic group of coenzyme B12. In all these enzymes, the bound B12-derivatives engage (or are formed) in exceptional organometallic enzymatic reactions. This chapter recapitulates the physiological chemistry of vitamin B12, relevant in the context of the metabolic transformation of B12-derivatives into the relevant coenzyme forms and their use in B12-dependent enzymes.

Abstract
B(12)-cofactors play important roles in the metabolism of microorganisms, animals and humans. Microorganisms are the only natural sources of B(12)-derivatives, and the latter are "vitamins" for other B(12)-requiring organisms. Some B(12)-dependent enzymes catalyze complex isomerisation reactions, such as methylmalonyl-CoA mutase. They need coenzyme B(12), an organometallic B(12)-derivative, to induce enzymatic radical reactions. Another group of widely relevant enzymes catalyzes the transfer of methyl groups, such as methionine synthase, which uses methylcobalamin as cofactor. This tutorial review covers structure and reactivity of B(12)-derivatives and structural aspects of their interactions with proteins and nucleotides, which are crucial for the efficient catalysis by the important B(12)-dependent enzymes, and for achieving and regulating uptake and transport of B(12)-derivatives.

Abstract
The hydration of the coenzyme cob(II)alamin has been studied using high-resolution monochromatic neutron crystallographic data collected at room temperature to a resolution of 0.92 Å on the original D19 diffractometer with a prototype 4° × 64° detector at the high-flux reactor neutron source run by the Institute Laue-Langevin. The resulting structure provides hydrogen-bonding parameters for the hydration of biomacromolecules to unprecedented accuracy. These experimental parameters will be used to define more accurate force fields for biomacromolecular structure refinement. The presence of a hydrophobic bowl motif surrounded by flexible side chains with terminal functional groups may be significant for the efficient scavenging of ligands. The feasibility of extending the resolution of this structure to ultrahigh resolution was investigated by collecting time-of-flight neutron crystallographic data during commissioning of the TOPAZ diffractometer with a prototype array of 14 modular 2° × 21° detectors at the Spallation Neutron Source run by Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
