Type:  Family Name:  Di-c-type haem protein, MauG/cytochrome c peroxidase
Description:  This family consists of di-c-heme containing proteins MauG and cytochrome peroxidases.MauG catalyses a six-electron oxidation required for posttranslational modification of a precursor of methylamine dehydrogenase (preMADH) to complete the biosynthesis of its protein-derived tryptophan tryptophylquinone (TTQ) cofactor involved in methylamine metabolism []. MauG contains two heme c binding sites with a Ca2+ ion linked to the two heme. This structure is also found in heme-containing peroxidases. It seems that tightly-bound Ca2+ is critical for the activity of a variety ofperoxidases []. MauG does not function primarily as a peroxidase, but can use H2O2 to catalyse posttranslational modifications of its protein substrate. This suggests that MauG may have originally been a peroxidase and then evolved to acquire its new function []. Short Name:  MauG/Cytc_peroxidase
