Protein Domain : IPR011980

Type:  Family Name:  Periplasmic nickel-binding protein
Description:  Members of this family are periplasmic nickel-binding proteins of nickel ABC transporters [, ]. Nickel is bound specifically, albeit weakly, through water molecules positioned in the binding site. The amino acids whose side chains line the binding site include Tyr-44, Met-49, Trp-122, Arg-159, Trp-420, and Tyr-424 (numbering based on the precursor sequence of Escherichia coliNikA) with the Arg contributing a hydrogen bond indirectly through a water molecule []. NikA may serve as a heme chaperone as well as a periplasmic nickel-binding protein []. Short Name:  NikA_ABC_Ni-bd
