Protein name

RecName: Full=Cytochrome c biogenesis ATP-binding export protein ccmA; EC=3.6.3.41; AltName: Full=Heme exporter protein A;

Gene name

ccmA

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 (By similarity).

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: ATP + H(2)O + heme(In) = ADP + phosphate + heme(Out).

SUBUNIT: The complex is composed of two ATP-binding proteins (ccmA) and two transmembrane proteins (ccmB) (Probable).

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ABC transporter family. CcmA exporter (TC 3.A.1.107) subfamily.

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell inner membrane; Peripheral membrane protein (By similarity).

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein (By similarity).

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Mitochondrion membrane; Peripheral membrane protein (By similarity).
