Protein
Cytochrome c-type biogenesis protein CcmE
Organism
Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus (strain ATCC 49037 / DSM 5601 / PAl5)
Function
Heme chaperone required for the biogenesis of c-type cytochromes. Transiently binds heme delivered by CcmC and transfers the heme to apo-cytochromes in a process facilitated by CcmF and CcmH (By similarity). Also required for indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) biosynthesis.
Similarity
Belongs to the CcmE/CycJ family.
