The accessory protein CooC, which contains a
nucleotide-binding domain (P-loop) near the N terminus, participates in
the maturation of the nickel center of carbon monoxide dehydrogenase
(CODH). In this study, CooC was purified from the chromatophore
membranes of Rhodospirillum rubrum with a 3,464-fold
purification and a 0.8% recovery, and its biochemical properties were
characterized. CooC is a homodimer with a molecular mass of
61-63 kDa, contains less than 0.1 atom of Ni2+ or
Fe2+ per dimer, and has a max at 277.5 nm
( 277.5 32.1 mM 1
cm 1) with no absorption peaks at the visible region. CooC
catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP and GTP with Km
values of 24.4 and 26.0 µM and
Vmax values of 58.7 and 3.7 nmol/min/mg protein for ATP and GTP hydrolysis, respectively. The P-loop mutated form of
K13Q CooC was generated by site-specific replacement of lysine by
glutamine and was purified according to the protocol for wild-type CooC
purification. The K13Q CooC was inactive both in ATP hydrolysis and
in vivo nickel insertion. In vitro nickel
activation of apoCODH in the cell extracts from UR2 (wild type) and
UR871 (K13Q CooC) showed that activation of nickel-deficient CODH was
enhanced by CooC and dependent upon ATP hydrolysis. The overall results
suggest that CooC couples ATP hydrolysis with nickel insertion into
apoCODH. On the basis of our results and models for analogous systems, the functional roles of CooC in nickel processing into the active site
of CODH are presented.
