Relationships between heme incorporation, tetramer formation, and catalysis of a heme-regulated phosphodiesterase from Escherichia coli: a study of deletion and site-directed mutants.

Abstract excerpt

The heme-regulated phosphodiesterase (PDE) from Escherichia coli (Ec DOS) is a tetrameric protein composed of an N-terminal sensor domain (amino acids 1-201) containing two PAS domains (PAS-A, amino acids 21-84, and PAS-B, amino acids 144-201) and a C-terminal catalytic domain (amino acids 336-799). Heme is bound to the PAS-A domain, and the redox state of the heme iron regulates PDE activity. In our experiments,...
