Identification
Name:Cytochrome c biogenesis ATP-binding export protein CcmA
Synonyms:
  • Heme exporter protein A
Gene Name:ccmA
Enzyme Class:
Biological Properties
General Function:Involved in nucleotide binding
Specific Function:Part of the ABC transporter complex CcmAB involved in the biogenesis of c-type cytochromes; once thought to export heme, this seems not to be the case, but its exact role is uncertain. Responsible for energy coupling to the transport system
Cellular Location:Cell inner membrane; Peripheral membrane protein
