Protein Family Models

This C-terminal region of CcmF, one of the cytochrome c-type biogenesis proteins, is associated at the C-terminal with Cytochrome_C_asm family Pfam:PF01578. It is possible that it is this domain which delivers reductant to haem on CcmE. [1]. 20382024. Cytochrome c biogenesis: the Ccm system. Sanders C, Turkarslan S, Lee DW, Daldal F;.

This family consists of various proteins involved in cytochrome c assembly from mitochondria and bacteria; CycK from Rhizobium[3], CcmC from E. coli and Paracoccus denitrificans [2,1] and orf240 from wheat mitochondria [4]. The members of this family are probably integral membrane proteins with six predicted transmembrane helices. It has been proposed that members of this family comprise a membrane component of an ABC (ATP binding cassette) transporter complex. It is also proposed that this transporter is necessary for transport of some component needed for cytochrome c assembly. One member CycK contains a putative heme-binding motif [3], orf240 also contains a putative heme-binding motif and is a proposed ABC transporter with c-type heme as its proposed substrate [4]. However it seems unlikely that all members of this family transport heme nor c-type apocytochromes because CcmC in the putative CcmABC transporter transports neither [1]. CcmF forms a working module with CcmH and CcmI, CcmFHI, and itself is unlikely to bind haem directly [5]. [1]. 9043133.
