Abstract excerpt
In Escherichia coli cytochrome c maturation requires a set of eight proteins including the heme chaperone CcmE, which binds heme transiently, yet covalently. Several variants of CcmE were purified and analyzed by continuous-wave electron paramagnetic resonance, electron nuclear double resonance, and hyperfine sublevel correlation spectroscopy to investigate the heme axial coordination. Results reveal the presence...
