Theoretical Model: The protein structure described on this page was determined theoretically, and hence should be interpreted with caution.

Structural highlights For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Resources: FirstGlance, PDBsum, ProSAT Publication Abstract from PubMed An alpha/beta barrel is predicted for the three-dimensional (3D) structure of Bacillus subtilis ferrochelatase. To arrive at this structure, the THREADER program was used to find possible homologous 3D structures and to predict the secondary structure for the ferrochelatase sequence. The secondary structure was fit by hand to the selected homologous 3D structure then the MODELLER program was used to predict the fold of ferrochelatase. Molecular biological information about the conserved residues of ferrochelatase was used as the criteria to help select the homologous 3D structure used to predict the fold of ferrochelatase. Based on the predicted structure possible, ligands binding to the iron and protoporphyrin IX are discussed. The structure has been deposited in the Brookhaven database as ID 1FJI.
