Copper centers modeled
in the pmoB subunit of M. capsulatus (Bath) pMMO
(pdb 3RGB).
The dicopper site (left) is located at the N-terminus of the pmoB
subunit, and conserved residues His33, His137, and His139 coordinate
the copper ions. The monocopper site (right), located ∼21 Å
distant, is not conserved in other pMMO structures, and residues His48
and His72 coordinate the copper ion.
