Solution structure of the heme chaperone CcmE of Escherichia coli
Overview
The concept of metal chaperones involves transient binding of metallic cofactors by specific proteins for delivery to enzymes in which they function. Metal chaperones thus provide a protective, as well as a transport, function. We report the first structure of a heme chaperone, CcmE, which comprises these two functions. We propose that the covalent attachment of heme to an exposed histidine occurs after heme binding at the surface of a rigid molecule with a flexible C-terminal domain. CcmE belongs to a family of proteins with a specific fold, which all share a function in delivery of specific molecular cargo.
