UniProt functional annotation for P77499

UniProt code: P77499.

Organism: Escherichia coli (strain K12).
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia.
 
Function: Has low ATPase activity. The SufBCD complex acts synergistically with SufE to stimulate the cysteine desulfurase activity of SufS. The SufBCD complex contributes to the assembly or repair of oxygen-labile iron-sulfur clusters under oxidative stress. May facilitate iron uptake from extracellular iron chelators under iron limitation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12554644, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12941942}.
 
Biophysicochemical properties: Kinetic parameters: KM=0.29 mM for ATP {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12554644}; Vmax=4.45 umol/min/mg enzyme {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12554644};
Subunit: Part of the SufBCD complex that contains SufB, SufC and SufD. Interacts directly with SufB and SufD. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12554644, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12941942}.
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12554644}.
Similarity: Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. Ycf16 family. {ECO:0000305}.
