torC

Gene
torC
Protein
Cytochrome c-type protein TorC
Organism
Escherichia coli O157:H7
Length
390 amino acids
Function
Part of the anaerobic respiratory chain of trimethylamine-N-oxide reductase TorA. Acts by transferring electrons from the membranous menaquinones to TorA. This transfer probably involves an electron transfer pathway from menaquinones to the N-terminal domain of TorC, then from the N-terminus to the C-terminus, and finally to TorA. TorC apocytochrome negatively autoregulates the torCAD operon probably by inhibiting the TorS kinase activity (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the TorC/TorY family.
