Function

PcrH or Regulatory protein PcrH is a chaperone protein which is a member of the translocon system which enables bacteria to form a pore in the cell wall for the insertion of toxins into it[1]. See details in Molecular Playground/Pcr H.

Structural highlights

PcrH contains a helical Tpr domain (tetratricopeptide) which interacts with the translocator PopD or PopB peptide. Water molecules are shown as red spheres. PopD peptide binds at the concave surface of PcrH. NO3- ion binding site (PDB code 2xcb). [2]
