Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
DELTA211-217 Bacillus subtilis LMT20R is deleted for the ctaA gene and, therefore, completely blocked in heme A synthesis. Plasmid pH216MS is obtained from plasmid pH216M (encoding the mutant CtaA-H216M) and carries a 21 bp deletion in ctaA. The CtaADELTA211-217 variant encoded by pH216MS is active in heme A synthesis and supports assembly of normal levels of cytochrome caa3 Bacillus subtilis
H216M the H216M variant binds the enzyme substrate heme O, probably with methionine as an axial ligand, but is defective in heme A synthesis and accumulates a mono-hydroxylated reaction intermediate, heme I Bacillus subtilis
