General Information

  • Identifier IPR036676
  • Description PurM-like, C-terminal domain superfamily
  • Number of genes 365
  • Gene duplication stats Loading...

Abstract

This domain superfamily is found in carbamoyl dehydratase HypE, which is involved in the maturation of NifE hydrogenase; AIR synthase (PurM) and FGAM synthase (PurL), which are involved in de novo purine biosynthesis; and selenide, water dikinase, an enzyme which synthesizes selenophosphate from selenide and ATP.

In PurM this domain, which has an alpha-beta-type fold, is found at the C terminus of the protein [ 1 ].
