Protein
Probable ATP-dependent transporter SufC
Organism
Escherichia coli (strain K12)
Function
Has low ATPase activity. The SufBCD complex acts synergistically with SufE to stimulate the cysteine desulfurase activity of SufS. The SufBCD complex contributes to the assembly or repair of oxygen-labile iron-sulfur clusters under oxidative stress. May facilitate iron uptake from extracellular iron chelators under iron limitation.
Similarity
Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Ycf16 family.
