| Abstract | The interaction of heme with the heme chaperone CcmE is central to our understanding of cytochrome c maturation, a complex post-translational process involving at least eight proteins in many Gram-negative bacteria and plant mitochondria. We have shown previously that Escherichia coli CcmE can interact with heme non-covalently in vitro, before forming a novel covalent histidine-heme bond, in a redox-sensitive manner. The function of CcmE is to bind heme in the periplasm before transferring it to apocytochromes c. In the absence of structural information on the complex of CcmE and heme, we have further characterized it by examining the binding of the soluble domain of CcmE (CcmE′) to protoporphyrins containing metals other than Fe, namely Zn-, Sn-, Co- and Mn-protoporphyrin (PPIX). CcmE′ demonstrated no affinity for the Zn- or Sn-containing protoporphyrins and low affinity for Mn(II)-PPIX. High-affinity, reversible binding was, however, observed for Co(III)-PPIX, which was highly sensitive to oxidation state as demonstrated by release of the ligand from the chaperone on reduction; no binding to Co(II)-PPIX was observed. The non-covalent complex of CcmE′ and Co(III)-PPIX was characterized by non-denaturing mass spectrometry. The implications of these observations for the in vivo function of CcmE are discussed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
