Structural and biochemical studies of Sporosarcina pasteurii UreE: a nickel-chaperone involved in the urease activation process
Urease is a nickel-dependent enzyme that catalyzes hydrolysis of urea in the last step of organic nitrogen mineralization. Its active site contains a dinuclear center for Ni(II) ions that must be inserted into the apo-enzyme through the action of four accessory proteins (UreD, UreE, UreF, UreG) lead...
