Project Summary (from current Period of award—GM47909, years 20-23) Cytochromes are heme proteins essential for aerobic and anaerobic growth of most organisms, including human pathogens. Recently it has become clear that dedicated assembly factors are crucial for cytochrome biogenesis. The biogenesis of c-type cytochromes occurs by one of three pathways, systems I, II, or III. System I has eight (CcmABCDEFGH) and system II has two (CcsBA) dedicated assembly factors (membrane proteins), while system III of mitochondria uses a single enzyme called holocytochrome c synthase (HCCS). Because only prokaryotes use systems I and II and they function outside the cytoplasmic membrane, like the targets of penicillin, these pathways represent potential targets for new antimicrobial compounds. Moreover, human HCCS variants are responsible for the genetic disease MLS, and mitochondrial pathologies are implicated in cancer, myopathies, neurological, and other diseases. The c-type cytochromes possess heme that is covalently attached to the apocytochrome at two cysteines (at a CXXCH motif), a reaction carried out by the synthetase of each system. This study examines how proteins in systems I, II, and III attach heme to apocytochrome c, including where the CXXCH motif interacts on the synthetases (CcmF/H, CcsBA, HCCS), and how these synthetases function. Location of the CXXCH binding site on all synthetases represent major voids in our knowledge of the pathways, and in vitro reconstitution of synthetase functions are grand challenges for the field. The proposal takes advantage of recent success in purifying all proteins of systems I, II, and III from recombinant Escherichia coli. For most of these purified components, endogenous heme is co- purified, facilitating analyses of heme transport, red-ox control, and attachment mechanisms. Three aims are proposed, analyzing systems I (Aim 1), system II (Aim 2), and system III (Aim 3). System I is described in two steps. Step 1 is the CcmABCD-mediated synthesis and release of periplasmic holoCcmE (ie with heme). Aim 1A analyzes this step, establishing residues in CcmC that directly interact with heme for trafficking and testing our hypotheses on mechanisms of holoCcmE formation. In step 2, holoCcmE chaperones heme to the CcmF/H synthetase for attachment to apocytochrome c. Common goals are described for each of the three synthetases: establish the CXXCH binding site on CcmF/H (Aim 1B), CcsBA (Aim 2), and HCCS (Aim 3). This will be accomplished using in vivo and in vitro crosslinking approaches with purified synthetases. For each purified synthetase (Aim 1B, CcmF/H), CcsBA (Aim 2), HCCS (Aim 3), an in vitro attachment assay will be developed (ie attachment of heme to apocytochrome c). Additionally, Aim 3 will test and further elucidate our hypothesized four- step model of biogenesis by HCCS. Results here will unravel molecular mechanisms of biogenesis for all c-type cytochromes.
