Journal ArticleDOI
Subcellular location of MMACHC and MMADHC, two human proteins central to intracellular vitamin B(12) metabolism.
Wayne Mah,Justin C. Deme,David Watkins,Stephen Fung,Stephen Fung,Alexandre Janer,Alexandre Janer,Eric A. Shoubridge,Eric A. Shoubridge,David S. Rosenblatt,James W. Coulton +10 more
TL;DR: It is shown that MMACHC is cytoplasmic while MMADHC is both mitochondrial and cytop lasmic, consistent with the proposal that MMAD HC acts as a branch point for vitamin B(12) delivery to the cytopLasm and mitochondria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Membrane Protein Complex ExbB4-ExbD1-TonB1 from Escherichia coli Demonstrates Conformational Plasticity
Aleksandr Sverzhinsky,Jacqueline W. Chung,Justin C. Deme,Lucien Fabre,Kristian T. Levey,Maria Plesa,David M. Carter,Patrick Lypaczewski,James W. Coulton +8 more
TL;DR: In vitro evidence is demonstrated of the first report for purification of the ExbB-ExbD-TonB complex, molar ratios within the complex, and structural biology that provides insights into 3D organization are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural features of recombinant MMADHC isoforms and their interactions with MMACHC, proteins of mammalian vitamin B12 metabolism.
Justin C. Deme,Isabelle R. Miousse,Maria Plesa,Jaeseung C. Kim,Mark A. Hancock,Wayne Mah,David S. Rosenblatt,James W. Coulton +7 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that the function of MMADHC is exerted through its structured C-terminal domain via interactions with MMACHC, and that this interaction acts at a branch point for cobalamin delivery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification and interaction analyses of two human lysosomal vitamin B12 transporters: LMBD1 and ABCD4
Justin C. Deme,Mark A. Hancock,Xiaobing Xia,C.A. Shintre,Maria Plesa,Jaeseung C. Kim,Elisabeth P. Carpenter,David S. Rosenblatt,James W. Coulton +8 more
TL;DR: A model whereby membrane-bound LMBD1 and ABCD4 facilitate the vectorial delivery of lysosomal vitamin B12 to cytoplasmic MMACHC is proposed, thus preventing cofactor dilution to the cytopLasmic milieu and protecting against inactivating side reactions.
