Metal selectivity in P1B-type ATPase transporters is determined by conserved amino acid residues in their transmembrane helices responsible for metal binding and transport across the cellular membrane. The Cu(2+)-selective CopB from Archaeoglobus fulgidus has been investigated to explore the coordination chemistry of the transition metal binding sites in P1B-3-type ATPases. Electronic absorption, electron paramagnetic resonance, and X-ray absorption spectroscopic studies indicate the presence of ...[more]
