Characterization of the Escherichia coli CcmH protein reveals new insights into the redox pathway required for cytochrome c maturation.

Abstract excerpt

The CcmH protein of Escherichia coli is encoded by the last gene of the ccm gene cluster required for cytochrome c maturation. A mutant in which the entire ccmH gene was deleted failed to synthesize both indigenous and foreign c-type cytochromes. However, deletion of the C-terminal hydrophilic domain homologous to CycH of other gram-negative bacteria affected neither the biogenesis of indigenous c-type...
