Probing the heme-binding site of the cytochrome c maturation protein CcmE.
Maturation of c-type cytochromes in many bacterial species and plant mitochondria requires the participation of the heme chaperone CcmE that binds heme covalently via a His residue (H130 in Escherichia coli) before transferring it stereospecifically to the apo form of cytochromes c. Only the structu...
