Orthologs of MaoC include PaaZ (Escherichia coli) and PaaN (Pseudomonas putida), which are putative ring-opening enzymes of the aerobic phenylacetic acid (PA) catabolic pathway. The C-terminal domain of MaoC has sequence similarity to enoyl-CoA hydratase. Also included in this CD is a novel Burkholderia xenovorans LB400 ALDH of the aerobic benzoate oxidation (box) pathway. This pathway involves first the synthesis of a CoA thio-esterified aromatic acid, with subsequent dihydroxylation and cleavage steps, yielding the CoA thio-esterified aliphatic aldehyde, 3,4-dehydroadipyl-CoA semialdehyde, which is further converted into its corresponding CoA acid by the Burkholderia LB400 ALDH.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €0V¢€0€0€ €‚Ãcd07129, ALDH_KGSADH, Alpha-Ketoglutaric Semialdehyde Dehydrogenase.

A variety of La-related proteins (LARPs or La ribonucleoproteins), with differing domain architecture, appear to function as RNA-binding proteins in eukaryotic cellular processes.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €W4¢€0€0€ €‚cd07324, M48C_Oma1-like, Oma1 peptidase-like, integral membrane metallopeptidase. This family contains peptidase M48 subfamily C (also known as Oma1 peptidase or mitochondrial metalloendopeptidase OMA1), including similar peptidases containing tetratricopeptide (TPR) repeats, as well as uncharacterized proteins such as E. coli bepA (formerly yfgC), ycaL and loiP (formerly yggG), considered to be putative metallopeptidases. Oma1 peptidase is part of the quality control system in the inner membrane of mitochondria, with its catalytic site facing the matrix space. It cleaves and thereby promotes the turnover of mistranslated or misfolded membrane proteins. Oma1 can cleave the misfolded multi-pass membrane protein Oxa1, thus exerting a function similar to the ATP-dependent m-AAA protease for quality control of inner membrane proteins. It has been proposed that in the absence of m-AAA protease, proteolysis of Oxa1 is mediated by Oma1 in an ATP-independent manner. Homologs of Oma1 are present in higher eukaryotes, eubacteria and archaebacteria, suggesting that Oma1 is the founding member of a conserved family of membrane-embedded metallopeptidases, all containing the zinc metalloprotease motif (HEXXH). M48 peptidases proteolytically remove the C-terminal three residues of farnesylated proteins.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €ä«¢€0€0€ €‚ˆcd07325, M48_Ste24p_like, M48 Ste24 endopeptidase-like, integral membrane metallopeptidase.

They likely remove the C-terminal three residues of farnesylated proteins proteolytically and are possibly associated with the endoplasmic reticulum and golgi.

This family contains peptidase M56, which includes zinc metalloprotease domain in MecR1 as well as BlaR1. MecR1 is a transmembrane beta-lactam sensor/signal transducer protein that regulates the expression of an altered penicillin-binding protein PBP2a, which resists inactivation by beta-lactam antibiotics, in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). BlaR1 regulates the inducible expression of a class A beta-lactamase that hydrolytically destroys certain ?-lactam antibiotics in MRSA. Both, MecR1 and BlaR1, are transmembrane proteins that consist of four transmembrane helices, a cytoplasmic zinc protease domain, and the soluble C-terminal extracellular sensor domain, and are highly similar in sequence and function. The signal for protein expression is transmitted by site-specific proteolytic cleavage of both the transducer, which auto-activates, and the repressor, which is inactivated, unblocking gene transcription.

This family contains peptidase M48 subfamily B, also known as HtpX, which consists of proteins smaller than Ste24p, with homology restricted to the C-terminal half of Ste24p. HtpX, an integral membrane (IM) metallopeptidase, is widespread in bacteria and archaea, and plays a central role in protein quality control by preventing the accumulation of misfolded proteins in the membrane. Its expression is controlled by the Cpx stress response system, which senses abnormal membrane proteins. HtpX participates in the proteolytic quality control of these misfolded proteins by undergoing self-degradation and eliminating them by collaborating with FtsH, a membrane-bound and ATP-dependent protease. HtpX contains the zinc binding motif (HEXXH), has an FtsH-like topology, and is capable of introducing endoproteolytic cleavages into SecY (also an FtsH substrate). However, HtpX does not have an ATPase activity and will only act against cytoplasmic regions of a target membrane protein. Thus, HtpX and FtsH have overlapping and/or complementary functions, which are especially important at high temperature; in E. coli and Xylella fastidiosa, HtpX is heat-inducible, while in Streptococcus gordonii it is not. Mutation studies of HtpX-like M48 metalloprotease from Leptospira interrogans (LA4131) has been shown to result in altered expression of a subset of metal toxicity and stress response genes.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €䮢€0€0€ €‚õcd07328, M48_Ste24p_like, M48 Ste24 endopeptidase-like, integral membrane metallopeptidase.

All members of this family contain the zinc metalloprotease motif (HEXXH), likely exposed on the cytoplasmic side. They are thought to be intimately associated with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), regardless of whether their genes possess the conventional signal motif (KKXX) in the C-terminal. Proteins in this family proteolytically remove the C-terminal three residues of farnesylated proteins. The gene ZmpSte24, also known as FACE-1 in humans, a member of this family, is involved in the post-translational processing of prelamin A to mature lamin A, a major component of the nuclear envelope. ZmpSte24 deficiency causes an accumulation of prelamin A leading to lipodystrophy and other disease phenotypes while mutations in the protein lead to diseases of lamin processing (laminopathies), such as premature aging disease progeria and metabolic disorders. Some of these mutations map to the peptide-binding site.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €ä±¢€0€0€ €‚Ocd07331, M48C_Oma1_like, Peptidase M48C, integral membrane endopeptidase.

In eukaryotes, Ste24p is required for the first NH2-terminal proteolytic processing event within the a-factor precursor, which takes place after COOH-terminal CAAX modification (C is cysteine; A is usually aliphatic; X is one of several amino acids) is complete. Mutation studies have shown that the HEXXH protease motif, which is extracellular but adjacent to a transmembrane domain and therefore close to the membrane surface, is critical for Ste24p activity. Several members of this family also contain tetratricopeptide (TPR) repeat motifs, which are involved in a variety of functions including protein-protein interactions. BepA has been shown to possess protease activity and is responsible for the degradation of incorrectly folded LptD, an essential outer-membrane protein (OMP) involved in OM transport and assembly of lipopolysaccharide.

All members contain the zinc metalloprotease motif (HEXXH). Homologs of this peptidase domain are also found in a number of other bacterial genome sequences, most of which are as yet uncharacterized.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €ä¼¢€0€0€ €‚Ocd07342, M48C_Oma1_like, M48C peptidase, integral membrane endopeptidase. This subfamily contains peptidase M48C Oma1 (also called mitochondrial metalloendopeptidase OMA1) protease homologs that are mostly uncharacterized. Oma1 is part of the quality control system in the inner membrane of mitochondria, with its catalytic site facing the matrix space. It cleaves and thereby promotes the turnover of mistranslated or misfolded membrane proteins. Oma1 can cleave the misfolded multi-pass membrane protein Oxa1, thus exerting a function similar to the ATP-dependent m-AAA protease for quality control of inner membrane proteins; it cleaves a misfolded polytopic membrane protein at multiple sites. It has been proposed that in the absence of m-AAA protease, proteolysis of Oxa1 is mediated by Oma1 in an ATP-independent manner. Oma1 is part of highly conserved mitochondrial metallopeptidases, with homologs present in higher eukaryotes, eubacteria and archaebacteria, all containing the zinc binding motif (HEXXH). It forms a high molecular mass complex in the inner membrane, possibly a homo-hexamer.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €ä½¢€0€0€ €‚cd07343, M48A_Zmpste24p_like, Peptidase M48 subfamily A, a type 1 CaaX endopeptidase. This family contains peptidase family M48 subfamily A which includes a number of well-characterized genes such as those found in humans (ZMPSTE24, also known as farnesylated protein-converting enzyme 1 or FACE-1 or Hs Ste24), Taenia solium metacestode (TsSte24p), Arabidopsis (AtSte24) and yeast (Ste24p). Ste24p contains the zinc metalloprotease motif (HEXXH), likely exposed on the cytoplasmic side. It is thought to be intimately associated with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), regardless of whether its genes possess the conventional signal motif (KKXX) in the C-terminal. Proteins in this family proteolytically remove the C-terminal three residues of farnesylated proteins. Ste24p is involved in the post-translational processing of prelamin A to mature lamin A, a major component of the nuclear envelope. ZmpSte24 deficiency causes an accumulation of prelamin A leading to lipodystrophy and other disease phenotypes, while mutations in this gene or in that encoding its substrate, prelamin A, result in a series of human inherited diseases known as laminopathies, the most severe of which are Hutchinson Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) and restrictive dermopathy (RD) which arise due to unsuccessful maturation of prelamin A. Two forms of mandibuloacral dysplasia, a condition that causes a variety of abnormalities involving bone development, skin pigmentation, and fat distribution, are caused by mutations in two different genes; mutations in the LMNA gene, which normally provides instructions for making lamin A and lamin C, cause mandibuloacral dysplasia with A-type lipodystrophy (MAD-A), and mutations in the ZMPSTE24 gene cause mandibuloacral dysplasia with B-type lipodystrophy (MAD-B). Within cells, these genes are involved in maintaining the structure of the nucleus and may play a role in many cellular processes. Certain HIV protease inhibitors have been shown to inhibit the enzymatic activity of ZMPSTE24, but not enzymes involved in prelamin A processing.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €ä¾¢€0€0€ €‚øcd07344, M48_yhfN_like, Peptidase M48 YhfN-like, a novel minigluzincin.

It is probably associated with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), regardless of whether its genes possess the conventional signal motif (KKXX) in the C-terminal. Proteins in this family proteolytically remove the C-terminal three residues of farnesylated proteins. This novel family of related proteins consist of the soluble minimal scaffold similar to the catalytic domains of the integral-membrane metallopeptidase M48 and M56, thus called minigluzincins.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €ä¿¢€0€0€ €‚¤cd07345, M48A_Ste24p-like, Peptidase M48 subfamily A-like, putative CaaX prenyl protease.

Proteins in this family contain the zinc metalloprotease motif (HEXXH), likely exposed on the cytoplasmic side. They are thought to be possibly associated with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), regardless of whether their genes possess the conventional signal motif (KKXX) in the C-terminal.

This domain is found in harmonin, and similar proteins such as delphilin, and whirlin. These are postsynaptic density-95/discs-large/ZO-1 (PDZ) domain-containing scaffold proteins. Harmonin and whirlin are organizers of the Usher protein network of the inner ear and the retina, delphilin is found at the cerebellar parallel fiber-Purkinje cell synapses. This domain is also found in CCM2 (also called malcavernin; C7orf22/chromosome 7 open reading frame 22; OSM). CCM2 along with CCM1 and CCM3 constitutes a set of proteins which when mutated are responsible for cerebral cavernous malformations, an autosomal dominant neurovascular disease characterized by cerebral hemorrhages and vascular malformations in the central nervous system. CCM2 plays many functional roles. CCM2 functions as a scaffold involved in small GTPase Rac-dependent p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation when the cell is under hyperosmotic stress. It associates with CCM1 in the signaling cascades that regulate vascular integrity and participates in HEG1 (the transmembrane receptor heart of glass 1) mediated endothelial cell junctions. CCM proteins also inhibit the activation of small GTPase RhoA and its downstream effector Rho kinase (ROCK) to limit vascular permeability. CCM2 mediates TrkA-dependent cell death via its N-terminal PTB domain in pediatric neuroblastic tumours; the C-terminal domain of malcavernin represented here has also been refered to as the Karet domain. Harmonin contains a single copy of this domain at its N-terminus which binds specifically to a short internal peptide fragment of the cadherin 23 cytoplasmic domain (a component of the Usher protein network). Whirlin contains two copies of this domain; the first of these has been assayed for interaction with the cytoplasmic domain of cadherin 23 and no interaction could be detected.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €öꢀ0€0€ €‚îcd07348, NR_LBD_NGFI-B, The ligand binding domain of Nurr1, a member of conserved family of nuclear receptors.

It is involved in T-cell-mediated apoptosis, as well as neuronal differentiation and function. NGFI-B regulates transcription by binding to a specific DNA target upstream of its target genes and regulating the rate of transcriptional initiation.

DAX1 plays an important role in the normal development of several hormone-producing tissues. Duplications of the region of the X chromosome containing DAX1 cause dosage sensitive sex reversal. DAX1 acts as a global repressor of many nuclear receptors, including SF-1, LRH-1, ERR, ER, AR and PR.

CYTH-like superfamily enzymes hydrolyze triphosphate-containing substrates and require metal cations as cofactors. They have a unique active site located at the center of an eight-stranded antiparallel beta barrel tunnel (the triphosphate tunnel). The name CYTH originated from the gene designation for bacterial class IV adenylyl cyclases (CyaB), and from thiamine triphosphatase. Class IV adenylate cyclases catalyze the conversion of ATP to 3',5'-cyclic AMP (cAMP) and PPi. Thiamine triphosphatase is a soluble cytosolic enzyme which converts thiamine triphosphate to thiamine diphosphate. This domain superfamily also contains RNA triphosphatases, membrane-associated polyphosphate polymerases, tripolyphosphatases, nucleoside triphosphatases, nucleoside tetraphosphatases and other proteins with unknown functions.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €1¢€0€0€ €‚–cd07375, Anticodon_Ia_like, Anticodon-binding domain of class Ia aminoacyl tRNA synthetases and similar domains.

This family includes eukaryotic D-serine dehydratases (DSD), cryptic DSDs from bacteria, D-threonine aldolases (D-TA), low specificity D-TAs, and similar uncharacterized proteins. DSD catalyzes the dehydration of D-serine to aminoacrylate, which is rapidly hydrolyzed to pyruvate and ammonia. D-TA reversibly catalyzes the aldol cleavage of D-threonine into glycine and acetaldehyde, and the synthesis of D-threonine from glycine and acetaldehyde. Members of this family are fold type III PLP-dependent enzymes, similar to bacterial alanine racemase (AR), which contains an N-terminal PLP-binding TIM barrel domain and a C-terminal beta-sandwich domain.

Binding of the effector to GntR-like transcriptional regulators is presumed to result in a conformational change that regulates the DNA-binding affinity of the repressor. The GntR-like proteins bind as dimers, where each monomer recognizes a half-site of 2-fold symmetric DNA sequences.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €WJ¢€0€0€ €‚icd07378, MPP_ACP5, Homo sapiens acid phosphatase 5 and related proteins, metallophosphatase domain.

The RGS domain is an essential part of the Regulator of G-protein Signaling (RGS) protein family, a diverse group of multifunctional proteins that regulate cellular signaling events downstream of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). RGS proteins play critical regulatory roles as GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) of the heterotrimeric G-protein G-alpha-subunits. While inactive, G-alpha-subunits bind GDP, which is released and replaced by GTP upon agonist activation. GTP binding leads to dissociation of the alpha-subunit and the beta-gamma-dimer, allowing them to interact with effectors molecules and propagate signaling cascades associated with cellular growth, survival, migration, and invasion. Deactivation of the G-protein signaling controlled by the RGS domain accelerates GTPase activity of the alpha subunit by hydrolysis of GTP to GDP, which results in the reassociation of the alpha-subunit with the beta-gamma-dimer and thereby inhibition of downstream activity. As a major G-protein regulator, RGS domain containing proteins are involved in many crucial cellular processes such as regulation of intracellular trafficking, glial differentiation, embryonic axis formation, skeletal and muscle development, and cell migration during early embryogenesis. RGS proteins are also involved in apoptosis and cell proliferation, as well as modulation of cardiac development.

This group is composed of many different subtilisins: Pro-TK-subtilisin, subtilisin Carlsberg, serine protease Pb92 subtilisin, and BPN subtilisins just to name a few. Pro-TK-subtilisin is a serine protease from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus kodakaraensis and consists of a signal peptide, a propeptide, and a mature domain. TK-subtilisin is matured from pro-TK-subtilisin upon autoprocessing and degradation of the propeptide. Unlike other subtilisins though, the folding of the unprocessed form of pro-TK-subtilisin is induced by Ca2+ binding which is almost completed prior to autoprocessing. Ca2+ is required for activity unlike the bacterial subtilisins. The propeptide is not required for folding of the mature domain unlike the bacterial subtilases because of the stability produced from Ca2+ binding. Subtilisin Carlsberg is extremely similar in structure to subtilisin BPN'/Novo thought it has a 30% difference in amino acid sequence.

The C-terminal carboxylate group is essential, and proteins where this group is amidated are not substrates. This family of proteases contains the PDZ domain that promotes protein-protein interactions and is important for substrate recognition. The active site consists of a serine/lysine catalytic dyad. The bacterial CCP-1 is believed to be important for the degradation of incorrectly synthesized proteins as well as protection from thermal and osmotic stresses. In E. coli, it is involved in the cleavage of a C-terminal peptide of 11 residues from the precursor form of penicillin-binding protein 3 (PBP3). In the plant chloroplast, the enzyme removes the C-terminal extension of the D1 polypeptide of photosystem II, allowing the light-driven assembly of the tetranuclear manganese cluster, which is responsible for photosynthetic water oxidation.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €0t¢€0€0€ €‚acd07561, Peptidase_S41_CPP_like, C-terminal processing peptidase-like; serine protease family S41. Bacterial protease homologs of the S41 family related to C-terminal processing peptidase (CPP). CPP-1 is believed to be important for the degradation of incorrectly synthesized proteins as well as protection from thermal and osmotic stresses.

The CPP active site consists of a serine/lysine catalytic dyad. Conservation of these residues is seen in the CPP-like proteins of this group. CPP proteins contain a PDZ domain that promotes protein-protein interactions and is important for substrate recognition however, most of CPP-like proteins only have an internal fragment or lack the PDZ domain.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €0u¢€0€0€ €‚kcd07562, Peptidase_S41_TRI, Tricorn protease; serine protease family S41. The tricorn protease (TRI), a member of the S41 peptidase family and named for its tricorn-like shape, exists only in some archaea and eubacteria. It has been shown to act as a carboxypeptidase, involved in the degradation of proteasomal products to preferentially yield di- and tripeptides, with subsequent and final degradations to free amino acid residues by tricorn interacting factors, F1, F2 and F3. Tricorn is a hexameric D3-symmetric protease of 720kD, and can self-associate further into a giant icosahedral capsid structure containing twenty copies of the complex. Each tricorn peptidase monomer consists of five structural domains: a six-bladed beta-propeller and a seven-bladed beta-propeller that limit access to the active site, the two domains (C1 and C2) that carry the active site residues, and a PDZ-like domain (proposed to be important for substrate recognition) between the C1 and C2 domains. The active site tetrad residues are distributed between the C1 and C2 domains, with serine and histidine on C1 and serine and glutamate on C2.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €0v¢€0€0€ €‚Ìcd07563, Peptidase_S41_IRBP, Interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein; serine protease family S41. Interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein (IRBP) is a homolog of the S41 protease, C-terminal processing peptidase (CTPase) family. It is thought to facilitate the compartmentalization of the visual cycle that requires poorly soluble and potentially toxic retinoids to cross the aqueous subretinal space between the photoreceptors and the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). IRBP is secreted by photoreceptors into the interphotoreceptor matrix (IPM) where it is rapidly turned over by a combination of RPE and photoreceptor endocytosis. It is the most abundant soluble protein component of the IPM, consisting of homologous modules, each repeat structure arising through the duplication (as in teleost IRBP) or quadruplication (in tetrapods) of an ancient gene, arisen in the early evolution of the vertebrate eye. IRBP has been shown to promote the release of all-trans retinol from photoreceptors and facilitates its delivery to the RPE. Conversely, IRBP can promote the release of 11-cis-retinal from the RPE, prevent its isomerization in the subretinal space, and transfer it to photoreceptors. In vivo evidence implicates IRBP as a retinoid transporter in the visual cycle, suggesting a critical role for IRBP in cone function essential for human vision. IRBP is a dominant autoimmune antigen in the eye; IRBP proteolysis analysis has proven a useful biomarker for autoimmune uveitis (AU) disorders, a major cause of blindness. This family also includes a chlamydia-secreted protein, designated chlamydia protease-like activity factor (CPAF), known to degrade host proteins, enabling Chlamydia to evade host defenses and replicate.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €0w¢€0€0€ €‚–cd07564, nitrilases_CHs, Nitrilases, cyanide hydratase (CH)s, and similar proteins (class 1 nitrilases).

From their expression patterns, it has been speculated that NIT3 may produce IAA during the early stages of germination, and that NIT3 may produce IAA during embryo development and maturation. AthNIT4 has a strong substrate specificity for the nitrile, beta-cyano-L-alanine (Ala(CN)), an intermediate of cyanide detoxification.

This subgroup is composed of mostly bacterial and archaeal glycerol kinases (GK), including the well characterized proteins from Escherichia coli (EcGK), Thermococcus kodakaraensis (TkGK), and Enterococcus casseliflavus (EnGK). GKs contain two large domains separated by a deep cleft that forms the active site. This model includes both the N-terminal domain, which adopts a ribonuclease H-like fold, and the structurally related C-terminal domain. The high affinity ATP binding site of EcGK is created only by a substrate-induced conformational change, which is initiated by protein-protein interactions through complex formation with enzyme IIAGlc (also known as IIIGlc), the glucose-specific phosphocarrier protein of the phosphotransferase system (PTS). EcGK exists in a dimer-tetramer equilibrium. IIAGlc binds to both EcGK dimer and tetramer, and inhibits the uptake and subsequent metabolism of glycerol and maltose. Another well-known allosteric regulator of EcGK is fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (FBP), which binds to the EcGK tetramer and plays an essential role in the stabilization of the inactive tetrameric form. EcGK requires Mg2+ for its enzymatic activity. Members in this subgroup belong to the FGGY family of carbohydrate kinases.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €Ù¢€0€0€ €‚®cd07789, FGGY_CsGK_like, Cellulomonas sp. glycerol kinase-like proteins; belongs to the FGGY family of carbohydrate kinases.

This subgroup corresponds to a group of metazoan glycerol kinases (GKs), coded by X chromosome-linked GK genes, and glycerol kinase (GK)-like proteins, coded by autosomal testis-specific GK-like genes (GK-like genes, GK1 and GK3). Sequence comparison shows that metazoan GKs and GK-like proteins in this family are closely related to the bacterial GKs, which catalyze the Mg-ATP dependent phosphorylation of glycerol to yield glycerol 3-phosphate (G3P). The metazoan GKs do have GK enzymatic activity. However, the GK-like metazoan proteins do not exhibit GK activity and their biological functions are not yet clear. Some of them lack important functional residues involved in the binding of ADP and Mg2+, which may result in the loss of GK catalytic function.

Coenzyme Q-binding protein COQ10p and similar proteins. COQ10p is a hydrophobic protein located in the inner membrane of mitochondria that binds coenzyme Q (CoQ), also called ubiquinone, which is an essential electron carrier of the respiratory chain. Deletion of the gene encoding COQ10p (COQ10 or YOL008W) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae results in respiratory defect because of the inability to oxidize NADH and succinate. COQ10p may function in the delivery of CoQ (Q6 in budding yeast) to its proper location for electron transport. The human homolog, called Q-binding protein COQ10 homolog A (COQ10A), is able to fully complement for the absence of COQ10p in fission yeast. Human COQ10A also has a splice variant COQ10B. COQ10p belongs to the SRPBCC (START/RHO_alpha_C/PITP/Bet_v1/CoxG/CalC) domain superfamily of proteins that bind hydrophobic ligands.

This family includes the SRPBCC (START/RHO_alpha_C/PITP/Bet_v1/CoxG/CalC) domain of Micromonospora echinospora CalC, human Aha1, and related proteins. Proteins in this group belong to the SRPBCC domain superfamily of proteins, which bind hydrophobic ligands. SRPBCC domains have a deep hydrophobic ligand-binding pocket. MeCalC confers resistance to the enediyne, calicheamicin gamma 1 (CLM), by a self sacrificing mechanism which results in inactivation of both CalC and the highly reactive diradical enediyne species. MeCalC can also inactivate two other enediynes, shishijimicin and namenamicin. A crucial Gly of the MeCalC CLM resistance mechanism is not conserved in this subgroup. This family also includes the C-terminal, Bet v1-like domain of Aha1, one of several co-chaperones, which regulate the dimeric chaperone Hsp90. Aha1 promotes dimerization of the N-terminal domains of Hsp90, and stimulates its low intrinsic ATPase activity, and may regulate the dwell time of Hsp90 with client proteins. Aha1 can act as either a positive or negative regulator of chaperone-dependent activation, depending on the client protein, but the mechanisms by which these opposing functions are achieved are unclear. Aha1 is upregulated in a number of tumor lines co-incident with the activation of several signaling kinases.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €²Ø¢€0€0€ €‚Ìcd07815, SRPBCC_PITP, Lipid-binding SRPBCC domain of Class I and Class II Phosphatidylinositol Transfer Proteins. This family includes the SRPBCC (START/RHO_alpha_C/PITP/Bet_v1/CoxG/CalC) domain of the phosphatidylinositol transfer protein (PITP) family of lipid transfer proteins.

The PITP family belongs to the SRPBCC domain superfamily of proteins that bind hydrophobic ligands. SRPBCC domains have a deep hydrophobic ligand-binding pocket. In vitro, PITPs bind phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns), as well as phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) but with a lower affinity. They transfer these lipids from one membrane compartment to another. The cellular roles of PITPs include inositol lipid signaling, PtdIns metabolism, and membrane trafficking. Class III PITPs, exemplified by the Sec14p family, are found in yeast and plants but are unrelated in sequence and structure to Class I and II PITPs and belong to a different superfamily.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €²Ù¢€0€0€ €‚Wcd07816, Bet_v1-like, Ligand-binding bet_v_1 domain of major pollen allergen of white birch (Betula verrucosa), Bet v 1, and related proteins. This family includes the ligand binding domain of Bet v 1 (the major pollen allergen of white birch, Betula verrucosa) and related proteins. In addition to birch Bet v 1, this family includes other plant intracellular pathogenesis-related class 10 (PR-10) proteins, norcoclaurine synthases (NCSs), cytokinin binding proteins (CSBPs), major latex proteins (MLPs), and ripening-related proteins. It belongs to the SRPBCC (START/RHO_alpha_C/PITP/Bet_v1/CoxG/CalC) domain superfamily of proteins that bind hydrophobic ligands. SRPBCC domains have a deep hydrophobic ligand-binding pocket. Members of this family binds a diverse range of ligands. Bet v 1 can bind brassinosteroids, cytokinins, flavonoids and fatty acids. Hyp-1, a PR-10 from Hypericum perforatum/St. John's wort, catalyzes the condensation of two molecules of emodin to the bioactive naphthodianthrone hypericin. NCSs catalyze the condensation of dopamine and 4-hydroxyphenylacetaldehyde to (S)-norcoclaurine, the first committed step in the biosynthesis of benzylisoquinoline alkaloids such as morphine. The role of MLPs is unclear; however, they are associated with fruit and flower development and in pathogen defense responses. A number of PR-10 proteins in this subgroup, including Bet v 1, have in vitro RNase activity, the biological significance of which is unclear. Bet v 1 family proteins have a conserved glycine-rich P (phosphate-binding)-loop proximal to the entrance of the ligand-binding pocket. However, its conformation differs from that of the canonical P-loop structure found in nucleotide-binding proteins. Several PR-10 members including Bet v1 are allergenic. Cross-reactivity of Bet v 1 with homologs from plant foods results in birch-fruit syndrome.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €²Ú¢€0€0€ €‚Ûcd07817, SRPBCC_8, Ligand-binding SRPBCC domain of an uncharacterized subfamily of proteins.

The PYR/PYL/RCAR-like family belongs to the SRPBCC (START/RHO_alpha_C/PITP/Bet_v1/CoxG/CalC) domain superfamily of proteins that bind hydrophobic ligands. SRPBCC domains have a deep hydrophobic ligand-binding pocket. PYR/PYL/RCAR plant proteins are receptors involved in signal transduction. They bind abscisic acid (ABA) and mediate its signaling. ABA is a vital plant hormone, which regulates plant growth, development, and response to environmental stresses. Upon binding ABA, these plant proteins interact with a type 2C protein phosphatase (PP2C), such as ABI1 and ABI2, and inhibit their activity. When ABA is bound, a loop (designated the gate/CL2 loop) closes over the ligand binding pocket, resulting in the weakening of the inactive PYL dimer and facilitating type 2C protein phosphatase binding. In the ABA:PYL1:ABI1 complex, the gate blocks substrate access to the phosphatase active site. A conserved Trp from PP2C inserts into PYL to lock the receptor in a closed formation. This group also contains Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 MxaD. The mxaD gene is located within the mxaFJGIR(S)ACKLDEHB cluster which encodes proteins involved in methanol oxidation. MxaD may participate in the periplasmic electron transport chain for oxidation of methanol.

TAF5 contains three domains, two conserved sequence motifs at the N-terminal and one at the C-terminal region. TFIID is one of seven General Transcription Factors (GTF) (TFIIA, TFIIB, TFIID, TFIIE, TFIIF, and TFIID) involved in accurate initiation of transcription by RNA polymerase II in eukaryotes. TFIID plays an important role in the recognition of promoter DNA and assembly of the preinitiation complex. TFIID complex is composed of the TBP and at least 13 TAFs. In yeast and human cells, TAFs have been found as components of other complexes besides TFIID. TAF5 may play a major role in forming TFIID and its related complexes. TAFs from various species were originally named by their predicted molecular weight or their electrophoretic mobility in polyacrylamide gels.

C-terminus of TAF5 contains six WD40 repeats that likely form a closed beta propeller structure and may be involved in protein-protein interaction. The first part of the TAF5 N-terminal (TAF5_NTD1) homodimerizes in the absence of other TAFs. The second conserved N-terminal part of TAF5 (TAF5_NTD2) has an alpha-helical domain. One study has shown that TAF5_NTD2 homodimerizes only at high concentration of calcium but not any other metals. No dimerization was observed in other structural studies of TAF_NTD2.

This family includes the following known members; Glycinamide Ribonucleotide Transformylase (GART), Formyl-FH4 Hydrolase, Methionyl-tRNA Formyltransferase, ArnA, and 10-Formyltetrahydrofolate Dehydrogenase (FDH). Glycinamide Ribonucleotide Transformylase (GART) catalyzes the third step in de novo purine biosynthesis, the transfer of a formyl group to 5'-phosphoribosylglycinamide. Formyl-FH4 Hydrolase catalyzes the hydrolysis of 10-formyltetrahydrofolate (formyl-FH4) to FH4 and formate. Methionyl-tRNA Formyltransferase transfers a formyl group onto the amino terminus of the acyl moiety of the methionyl aminoacyl-tRNA, which plays important role in translation initiation. ArnA is required for the modification of lipid A with 4-amino-4-deoxy-l-arabinose (Ara4N) that leads to resistance to cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMPs) and clinical antimicrobials such as polymyxin. 10-formyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (FDH) catalyzes the conversion of 10-formyltetrahydrofolate, a precursor for nucleotide biosynthesis, to tetrahydrofolate.

This domain is found in a variety of enzymes with formyl transferase and alkyladenine DNA glycosylase activities. The proteins with formyltransferase function include methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase, ArnA, 10-formyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase and HypX proteins. Although most proteins with formyl transferase activity contain this C-terminal domain, prokaryotic glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase (GART), a single domain protein, only contains the core catalytic domain. Thus, the C-terminal domain is not required for formyl transferase catalytic activity and may be involved in substrate binding. Some members of this family have shown nucleic acid binding capacity. The C-terminal domain of methionyl-tRNA formyltransferase is involved in tRNA binding. Alkyladenine DNA glycosylase is a distant member of this family with very low sequence similarity to other members.

This superfamily contains lumazine synthase (6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine synthase, LS) and riboflavin synthase (RS). Both enzymes play important roles in the riboflavin biosynthetic pathway. Riboflavin is the precursor of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) which are essential cofactors for the catalysis of a wide range of redox reactions. These cofactors are also involved in many other processes involving DNA repair, circadian time-keeping, light sensing, and bioluminescence. Riboflavin is biosynthesized in plants, fungi and certain microorganisms; as animals lack the necessary enzymes to produce this vitamin, they acquire it from dietary sources. In the final steps of the riboflavin biosynthetic pathway, LS catalyzes the condensation of the 5-amino-6-ribitylamino-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione with 3,4-dihydroxy- 2-butanone-4-phosphate to release water, inorganic phosphate and 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine (DMRL), and RS catalyzes a dismutation of DMRL which yields riboflavin and 5-amino-6-ribitylamino-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione. In the latter reaction, a four-carbon moiety is transferred between two DMRL molecules serving as donor and acceptor, respectively. Both the LS and RS catalyzed reactions are thermodynamically irreversible and can proceed in the absence of a catalyst. In bacteria and eukaryotes, there are two types of LS: type-I LS forms homo-pentamers or icosahedrally arranged dodecamers of pentamers, type-II LS forms decamers (dimers of pentamers).

Of the 17 identified synaptotagmins only 8 bind calcium (1-3, 5-7, 9, 10). The function of the two C2 domains that bind calcium are: regulating the fusion step of synaptic vesicle exocytosis (C2A) and binding to phosphatidyl-inositol-3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP3) in the absence of calcium ions and to phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PIP2) in their presence (C2B). C2B also regulates also the recycling step of synaptic vesicles. C2 domains fold into an 8-standed beta-sandwich that can adopt 2 structural arrangements: Type I and Type II, distinguished by a circular permutation involving their N- and C-terminal beta strands. Many C2 domains are Ca2+-dependent membrane-targeting modules that bind a wide variety of substances including bind phospholipids, inositol polyphosphates, and intracellular proteins. Most C2 domain proteins are either signal transduction enzymes that contain a single C2 domain, such as protein kinase C, or membrane trafficking proteins which contain at least two C2 domains, such as synaptotagmin 1. However, there are a few exceptions to this including RIM isoforms and some splice variants of piccolo/aczonin and intersectin which only have a single C2 domain.

SHD of Slp (except for the Slp4-SHD) function as a specific Rab27A/B-binding domain. In addition to Slp, rabphilin, Noc2, and Munc13-4 also function as Rab27-binding proteins.

Previously all synaptotagmins were thought to be calcium sensors in the regulation of neurotransmitter release and hormone secretion, but it has been shown that not all of them bind calcium. Of the 17 identified synaptotagmins only 8 bind calcium (1-3, 5-7, 9, 10). The function of the two C2 domains that bind calcium are: regulating the fusion step of synaptic vesicle exocytosis (C2A) and binding to phosphatidyl-inositol-3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP3) in the absence of calcium ions and to phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PIP2) in their presence (C2B). C2B also regulates also the recycling step of synaptic vesicles. C2 domains fold into an 8-standed beta-sandwich that can adopt 2 structural arrangements: Type I and Type II, distinguished by a circular permutation involving their N- and C-terminal beta strands. Many C2 domains are Ca2+-dependent membrane-targeting modules that bind a wide variety of substances including bind phospholipids, inositol polyphosphates, and intracellular proteins. Most C2 domain proteins are either signal transduction enzymes that contain a single C2 domain, such as protein kinase C, or membrane trafficking proteins which contain at least two C2 domains, such as synaptotagmin 1. However, there are a few exceptions to this including RIM isoforms and some splice variants of piccolo/aczonin and intersectin which only have a single C2 domain. C2 domains with a calcium binding region have negatively charged residues, primarily aspartates, that serve as ligands for calcium ions.

Synaptotagmin is a membrane-trafficking protein characterized by a N-terminal transmembrane region, a linker, and 2 C-terminal C2 domains. It is thought to be involved in the trafficking and exocytosis of secretory vesicles in non-neuronal tissues and is Ca2+ independent. Human synaptotagmin 15 has 2 alternatively spliced forms that encode proteins with different C-termini.

OxyR senses hydrogen peroxide and is activated through the formation of an intramolecular disulfide bond. The OxyR activation induces the transcription of genes necessary for the bacterial defense against oxidative stress. The OxyR of LysR-type transcriptional regulator family is composed of two functional domains joined by a linker helix involved in oligomerization: an N-terminal HTH (helix-turn-helix) domain, which is responsible for the DNA-binding specificity, and a C-terminal substrate-binding domain, which is structurally homologous to the type 2 periplasmic binding proteins. As also observed in the periplasmic binding proteins, the C-terminal domain of the bacterial transcriptional repressor undergoes a conformational change upon substrate binding which in turn changes the DNA binding affinity of the repressor. The C-terminal domain also contains the redox-active cysteines that mediate the redox-dependent conformational switch. Thus, the interaction between the OxyR-tetramer and DNA is notably different between the oxidized and reduced forms. The structural topology of this substrate-binding domain is most similar to that of the type 2 periplasmic binding proteins (PBP2), which are responsible for the uptake of a variety of substrates such as phosphate, sulfate, polysaccharides, lysine/arginine/ornithine, and histidine. The PBP2 bind their ligand in the cleft between these domains in a manner resembling a Venus flytrap.

CysB is a transcriptional activator of genes involved in sulfate and thiosulfate transport, sulfate reduction, and cysteine synthesis. In Escherichia coli, the regulation of transcription in response to sulfur source is attributed to two transcriptional regulators, CysB and Cbl. CysB, in association with Cbl, downregulates the expression of ssuEADCB operon which is required for the utilization of sulfur from aliphatic sulfonates, in the presence of cysteine. Also, Cbl and CysB together directly function as transcriptional activators of tauABCD genes, which are required for utilization of taurine as sulfur source for growth. Like many other members of the LTTR family, CysB is composed of two functional domains joined by a linker helix involved in oligomerization: an N-terminal HTH (helix-turn-helix) domain, which is responsible for the DNA-binding specificity, and a C-terminal substrate-binding domain, which is structurally homologous to the type 2 periplasmic binding proteins.

Opines, such as octopine and nopaline, are low molecular weight compounds found in plant crown gall tumors that are produced by the parasitic bacterium Agrobacterium. There are at least 30 different opines identified so far. Opines are utilized by tumor-colonizing bacteria as a source of carbon, nitrogen, and energy. NocR and OccR belong to the family of LysR-type transcriptional regulators that positively regulates the catabolism of nopaline and octopine, respectively. Both nopaline and octopalin are arginine derivatives. In Agrobacterium tumefaciens, NocR regulates expression of the divergently transcribed nocB and nocR genes of the nopaline catabolism (noc) region. OccR protein activates the occQ operon of the Ti plasmid in response to octopine. This operon encodes proteins required for the uptake and catabolism of octopine. The occ operon also encodes the TraR protein, which is a quorum-sensing transcriptional regulator of the Ti plasmid tra regulon.

NhaR is a positive regulator of the LysR family and is known to be an activator of the nhaA gene encoding a Na(+)/H(+) antiporter. In Escherichia coli, NhaA is the vital antiporter that protects against high sodium stress, and it is essential for growth in high sodium levels, while NhaB becomes essential only if NhaA is not available. The nhaA gene of nhaAR operon is induced by monovalent cations. The nhaR of the operon activates nhaAR, as well as the osmC transcription which is induced at elevated osmolarity. OsmC is transcribed from the two overlapping promoters (osmCp1 and osmP2) and that NhaR is shown to activate only the expression of osmCp1.

The NAC is a LysR-type transcription regulator that activates expression of operons such as hut (histidine utilization) and ure (urea utilization), allowing use of non-preferred (poor) nitrogen sources, and represses expression of operons, such as glutamate dehydrogenase (gdh), allowing assimilation of the preferred nitrogen source. The expression of the nac gene is fully dependent on the nitrogen regulatory system (NTR) and the sigma54-containing RNA polymerase (sigma54-RNAP).

Slp1/JFC1 and Slp2/exophilin 4 promote granule docking to the plasma membrane. Additionally, their C2A domains are both Ca2+ independent, unlike the case in Slp3 and Slp4/granuphilin in which their C2A domains are Ca2+ dependent. It is thought that SHD (except for the Slp4-SHD) functions as a specific Rab27A/B-binding domain. In addition to Slps, rabphilin, Noc2, and Munc13-4 also function as Rab27-binding proteins. It has been demonstrated that Slp3 and Slp4/granuphilin promote dense-core vesicle exocytosis. Slp5 mRNA has been shown to be restricted to human placenta and liver suggesting a role in Rab27A-dependent membrane trafficking in specific tissues. C2 domains fold into an 8-standed beta-sandwich that can adopt 2 structural arrangements: Type I and Type II, distinguished by a circular permutation involving their N- and C-terminal beta strands. Many C2 domains are Ca2+-dependent membrane-targeting modules that bind a wide variety of substances including bind phospholipids, inositol polyphosphates, and intracellular proteins. Most C2 domain proteins are either signal transduction enzymes that contain a single C2 domain, such as protein kinase C, or membrane trafficking proteins which contain at least two C2 domains, such as synaptotagmin 1. However, there are a few exceptions to this including RIM isoforms and some splice variants of piccolo/aczonin and intersectin which only have a single C2 domain.

SAM Pointed domain of ERG subfamily of ETS transcriptional regulators is a putative protein-protein interaction domain. It may participate in formation of homodimers or heterodimers with ETS-2, Fli-1, ER81, and Pu-1. However, dimeric forms are inactive and SAM Pointed domain is not essential for dimerization, since ER81 and Pu-1 do not have it.

The cellulosome consists of scaffoldin, a noncatalytic scaffolding polypeptide, that comprises repeating cohesion modules and a single carbohydrate-binding module (CBM). Specific calcium-dependent interactions between cohesins and dockerins appear to be essential for cellulosome assembly. Cohesin modules are phylogenetically distributed into three groups: type I cohesin-dockerin interactions mediate assembly of a range of dockerin-borne enzymes to the complex, while type-II interactions mediate attachment of the cellulosome complex to the bacterial cell wall. Recently discovered type-III cohesins, such as found in the anchoring scaffoldin ScaE, appears to contribute to increased stability of the elaborate cellulosome complex. While the presence of cohesin and dockerin domains in a genome can be indicative of cellulolytic activity, cohesin domains may occur in a wider range of domain architectures, biological systems, and taxonomic lineages.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €÷ó¢€0€0€ €‚Ãcd08547, Type_II_cohesin, Type II cohesin domain, interaction partner of dockerin.

Bacterial and archeal glycerol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase-like oxidoreductases. The proteins have similarity with glycerol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase (G1PDH). G1PDH plays a role in the synthesis of phosphoglycerolipids in gram-positive bacterial species. It catalyzes the reversibly reduction of dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) to glycerol-1-phosphate (G1P) in a NADH-dependent manner. Its activity requires Ni++ ion. It also contains archaeal Sn-glycerol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase (Gro1PDH) that plays an important role in the formation of the enantiomeric configuration of the glycerophosphate backbone (sn-glycerol-1-phosphate) of archaeal ether lipids.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €§‡¢€0€0€ €‚cd08550, GlyDH-like, Glycerol_dehydrogenase-like. Families of proteins related to glycerol dehydrogenases. Glycerol dehydrogenases (GlyDH) is a key enzyme in the glycerol dissimilation pathway. In anaerobic conditions, many microorganisms utilize glycerol as a source of carbon through coupled oxidative and reductive pathways. One of the pathways involves the oxidation of glycerol to dihydroxyacetone with the reduction of NAD+ to NADH catalyzed by glycerol dehydrogenases. Dihydroxyacetone is then phosphorylated by dihydroxyacetone kinase and enters the glycolytic pathway for further degradation. The activity of GlyDH is zinc-dependent. The zinc ion plays a role in stabilizing an alkoxide intermediate at the active site. Some subfamilies have not been characterized till now.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €§ˆ¢€0€0€ €‚€cd08551, Fe-ADH, iron-containing alcohol dehydrogenases (Fe-ADH)-like. Large metal-containing alcohol dehydrogenases (ADH), known as iron-containing alcohol dehydrogenases. They contain a dehydroquinate synthase-like protein structural fold and mostly contain iron. They are distinct from other alcohol dehydrogenases which contains different protein domains. There are several distinct families of alcohol dehydrogenases: Zinc-containing long-chain alcohol dehydrogenases; insect-type, or short-chain alcohol dehydrogenases; iron-containing alcohol dehydrogenases, and others. The iron-containing family has a Rossmann fold-like topology that resembles the fold of the zinc-dependent alcohol dehydrogenases, but lacks sequence homology, and differs in strand arrangement. ADH catalyzes the reversible oxidation of alcohol to acetaldehyde with the simultaneous reduction of NAD(P)+ to NAD(P)H.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €§‰¢€0€0€ €‚hcd08553, PIN_Fcf1-like, PIN domain of rRNA-processing proteins, Fcf1 (Utp24, YDR339C), Utp23 (YOR004W), and other eukaryotic homologs. Fcf1 (FAF1-copurifying factor 1, also known as Utp24) and Utp23 (U three-associated protein 23) are essential proteins involved in pre-rRNA processing and 40S ribosomal subunit assembly. Components of the small subunit (SSU) processome, Fcf1 and Utp23 are essential nucleolar proteins that are required for processing of the 18S pre-rRNA at sites A0-A2. The Fcf1 protein was reported to interact with Pmc1p (vacuolar Ca2+ ATPase) and Cor1p (core subunit of the ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase complex). The PIN (PilT N terminus) domains of these proteins are homologs of flap endonuclease-1 (FEN1)-like PIN domains, but apparently lack the H3TH domain or extensive arch/clamp region seen in the latter. PIN domains typically contain three or four conserved acidic residues (putative metal-binding, active site residues). The Fcf1 PIN domain subfamily has four of these putative active site residues. Point mutation studies showed that the conserved acidic residues in the putative active site of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Fcf1 are essential for pre-rRNA processing at sites A1 and A2, whereas the presence of the Fcf1 protein itself is also required for cleavage at site A0. S. cerevisiae Utp23 lacks several of these key residues and mutation of the conserved acidic residues seen in Utp23 did not interfere with rRNA maturation and cell viability. The subfamily of Fcf1- and Utp23-like homologs found in eukaryotes (except fungi) posses three of the four conserved residues seen in S. cerevisiae Fcf1.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €â]¢€0€0€ €‚”cd08554, Cyt_b561, Eukaryotic cytochrome b(561).

The PI-PLC-like phosphodiesterases superfamily represents the catalytic domains of bacterial phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC, EC 4.6.1.13), eukaryotic phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC, EC 3.1.4.11), glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterases (GP-GDE, EC 3.1.4.46), sphingomyelinases D (SMases D) (sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase D, EC 3.1.4.41) from spider venom, SMases D-like proteins, and phospholipase D (PLD) from several pathogenic bacteria, as well as their uncharacterized homologs found in organisms ranging from bacteria and archaea to metazoans, plants, and fungi. PI-PLCs are ubiquitous enzymes hydrolyzing the membrane lipid phosphoinositides to yield two important second messengers, inositol phosphates and diacylglycerol (DAG). GP-GDEs play essential roles in glycerol metabolism and catalyze the hydrolysis of glycerophosphodiesters to sn-glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P) and the corresponding alcohols that are major sources of carbon and phosphate. Both, PI-PLCs and GP-GDEs, can hydrolyze the 3'-5' phosphodiester bonds in different substrates, and utilize a similar mechanism of general base and acid catalysis with conserved histidine residues, which consists of two steps, a phosphotransfer and a phosphodiesterase reaction. This superfamily also includes Neurospora crassa ankyrin repeat protein NUC-2 and its Saccharomyces cerevisiae counterpart, Phosphate system positive regulatory protein PHO81, glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase (GP-GDE)-like protein SHV3 and SHV3-like proteins (SVLs). The residues essential for enzyme activities and metal binding are not conserved in these sequence homologs, which might suggest that the function of catalytic domains in these proteins might be distinct from those in typical PLC-like phosphodiesterases.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €±r¢€0€0€ €‚-cd08556, GDPD, Glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase domain as found in prokaryota and eukaryota, and similar proteins. The typical glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase domain (GDPD) consists of a TIM barrel and a small insertion domain named the GDPD-insertion (GDPD-I) domain, which is specific for GDPD proteins. This family corresponds to both typical GDPD domain and GDPD-like domain which lacks the GDPD-I region. Members in this family mainly consist of a large family of prokaryotic and eukaryotic glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterases (GP-GDEs, EC 3.1.4.46), and a number of uncharacterized homologs. Sphingomyelinases D (SMases D) (sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase D, EC 3.1.4.41) from spider venom, SMases D-like proteins, and phospholipase D (PLD) from several pathogenic bacteria are also included in this family. GDPD plays an essential role in glycerol metabolism and catalyzes the hydrolysis of glycerophosphodiesters to sn-glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P) and the corresponding alcohols are major sources of carbon and phosphate. Its catalytic mechanism is based on the metal ion-dependent acid-base reaction, which is similar to that of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipases C (PI-PLCs, EC 3.1.4.11). Both, GDPD related proteins and PI-PLCs, belong to the superfamily of PI-PLC-like phosphodiesterases.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €±s¢€0€0€ €‚µcd08557, PI-PLCc_bacteria_like, Catalytic domain of bacterial phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C and similar proteins. This subfamily corresponds to the catalytic domain present in bacterial phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC, EC 4.6.1.13) and their sequence homologs found in eukaryota. Bacterial PI-PLCs participate in Ca2+-independent PI metabolism, hydrolyzing the membrane lipid phosphatidylinositol (PI) to produce phosphorylated myo-inositol and diacylglycerol (DAG). Although their precise physiological function remains unclear, bacterial PI-PLCs may function as virulence factors in some pathogenic bacteria. Bacterial PI-PLCs contain a single TIM-barrel type catalytic domain. Its catalytic mechanism is based on general base and acid catalysis utilizing two well conserved histidines, and consists of two steps, a phosphotransfer and a phosphodiesterase reaction. Eukaryotic homologs in this family are named as phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C X domain containing proteins (PI-PLCXD). They are distinct from the typical eukaryotic phosphoinositide-specific phospholipases C (PI-PLC, EC 3.1.4.11), which have a multidomain organization that consists of a PLC catalytic core domain, and various regulatory domains. The catalytic core domain is assembled from two highly conserved X- and Y-regions split by a divergent linker sequence. In contrast, eukaryotic PI-PLCXDs contain a single TIM-barrel type catalytic domain, X domain, which is closely related to that of bacterial PI-PLCs. Although the biological function of eukaryotic PI-PLCXDs still remains unclear, it may be distinct from that of typical eukaryotic PI-PLCs. This family also includes a distinctly different type of eukaryotic PLC, glycosylphosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (GPI-PLC), an integral membrane protein characterized in the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei. T. brucei GPI-PLC hydrolyzes the GPI-anchor on the variant specific glycoprotein (VSG), releasing dimyristyl glycerol (DMG), which may facilitate the evasion of the protozoan to the host's immune system. It does not require Ca2+ for its activity and is more closely related to bacterial PI-PLCs, but not mammalian PI-PLCs.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €±t¢€0€0€ €‚žcd08558, PI-PLCc_eukaryota, Catalytic domain of eukaryotic phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C and similar proteins. This family corresponds to the catalytic domain present in eukaryotic phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC, EC 3.1.4.11) and similar proteins. The higher eukaryotic PI-PLCs play a critical role in most signal transduction pathways, controlling numerous cellular events such as cell growth, proliferation, excitation and secretion. They strictly require Ca2+ for the catalytic activity. They display a clear preference towards the hydrolysis of the more highly phosphorylated membrane phospholipids PI-analogues, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PIP), to generate two important second messengers in eukaryotic signal transduction cascades, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG). InsP3 triggers inflow of calcium from intracellular stores, while DAG, together with calcium, activates protein kinase C, which then phosphorylates other molecules, leading to altered cellular activity. The eukaryotic PI-PLCs have a multidomain organization that consists of a PLC catalytic core domain, and various regulatory domains, such as the pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, EF-hand motif, and C2 domain. The catalytic core domain is a TIM barrel with two highly conserved regions (X and Y) split by a linker region. The catalytic mechanism of eukaryotic PI-PLCs is based on general base and acid catalysis utilizing two well conserved histidines and consists of two steps, a phosphotransfer and a phosphodiesterase reaction. The mammalian PI-PLCs consist of 13 isozymes, which are classified into six-subfamilies, PI-PLC-delta (1,3 and 4), -beta(1-4), -gamma(1,2), -epsilon, -zeta, and -eta (1,2). Ca2+ is required for the activation of all forms of mammalian PI-PLCs, and the concentration of calcium influences substrate specificity. This family also includes metazoan phospholipase C related but catalytically inactive proteins (PRIP), which belong to a group of novel inositol trisphosphate binding proteins. Due to the replacement of critical catalytic residues, PRIP does not have PLC enzymatic activity.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €±u¢€0€0€ €‚[cd08559, GDPD_periplasmic_GlpQ_like, Periplasmic glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase domain (GlpQ) and similar proteins.

In E. coli, there are two major G3P uptake systems: Glp and Ugp, which contain genes coding for two different GP-GDEs. GlpQ gene from the glp operon codes for a periplasmic phosphodiesterase GlpQ. GlpQ is a dimeric enzyme that hydrolyzes periplasmic glycerophosphodiesters, such as glycerophosphocholine (GPC), glycerophosphoethanolanmine (GPE), glycerophosphoglycerol (GPG), glycerophosphoinositol (GPI), and glycerophosphoserine (GPS), to the corresponding alcohols and G3P, which is subsequently transported into the cell through the GlpT transport system.

This subfamily corresponds to the glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase domain (GDPD) present in Saccharomyces cerevisiae YPL206cp and uncharacterized hypothetical homologs existing in fungi. The product of S. cerevisiae ORF YPL206c (PGC1), YPL206cp (Pgc1p), displays homology to bacterial and mammalian glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterases (GP-GDE, EC 3.1.4.46), which catalyzes the degradation of glycerophosphodiesters to produce sn-glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P) and the corresponding alcohols.

This protein plays an essential role in the regulation of the cardiolipin (CL) biosynthetic pathway in yeast by removing the excess phosphatidylglycerol (PG) content of membranes via a phospholipase C-type degradation mechanism. YPL206cp has been characterized as a PG-specific phospholipase C that selectively catalyzes the cleavage of PG, not glycerophosphoinositol (GPI) or glycerophosphocholine (GPC), to diacylglycerol (DAG) and glycerophosphate.

Both, SHV3 and SVLs, have two tandemly repeated GDPD domains whose biochemical functions remain unclear.

In addition, the two tandem repeats show low sequence similarity to each other, suggesting they have different biochemical function. Most members of this family are Arabidopsis-specific gene products. To date, SHV3 orthologues are only found in Physcomitrella patens.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €±¢€0€0€ €‚äcd08572, GDPD_GDE5_like, Glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase domain of mammalian glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase GDE5-like proteins.

Members of the glycosyl hydrolase families 32, 43, 62 and 68 (GH32, GH43, GH62, GH68) all possess 5-bladed beta-propeller domains and comprise clans F and J, as classified by the carbohydrate-active enzymes database (CAZY). Clan F consists of families GH43 and GH62. GH43 includes beta-xylosidases, beta-xylanases, alpha-L-arabinases, and alpha-L-arabinofuranosidases, using aryl-glycosides as substrates, while family GH62 contains alpha-L-arabinofuranosidases (EC 3.2.1.55) that specifically cleave either alpha-1,2 or alpha-1,3-L-arabinofuranose sidechains from xylans. These are inverting enzymes (i.e. they invert the stereochemistry of the anomeric carbon atom of the substrate) that have an aspartate as the catalytic general base, a glutamate as the catalytic general acid and another aspartate that is responsible for pKa modulation and orienting the catalytic acid. Clan J consists of families GH32 and GH68. GH32 comprises sucrose-6-phosphate hydrolases, invertases, inulinases, levanases, eukaryotic fructosyltransferases, and bacterial fructanotransferases while GH68 consists of frucosyltransferases (FTFs) that include levansucrase (EC 2.4.1.10); beta-fructofuranosidase (EC 3.2.1.26); inulosucrase (EC 2.4.1.9), while GH68 consists of frucosyltransferases (FTFs) that include levansucrase (EC 2.4.1.10); beta-fructofuranosidase (EC 3.2.1.26); inulosucrase (EC 2.4.1.9), all of which use sucrose as their preferential donor substrate. Members of this clan are retaining enzymes (i.e. they retain the configuration at anomeric carbon atom of the substrate) that catalyze hydrolysis in two steps involving a covalent glycosyl enzyme intermediate: an aspartate located close to the N-terminus acts as the catalytic nucleophile and a glutamate acts as the general acid/base; a conserved aspartate residue in the Arg-Asp-Pro (RDP) motif stabilizes the transition state. Structures of all families in the two clans manifest a funnel-shaped active site that comprises two subsites with a single route for access by ligands.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €Õv¢€0€0€ €‚Dcd08773, FpgNei_N, N-terminal domain of Fpg (formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosylase, MutM)_Nei (endonuclease VIII) base-excision repair DNA glycosylases. DNA glycosylases maintain genome integrity by recognizing base lesions created by ionizing radiation, alkylating or oxidizing agents, and endogenous reactive oxygen species. These enzymes initiate the base-excision repair process, which is completed with the help of enzymes such as phosphodiesterases, AP endonucleases, DNA polymerases and DNA ligases. DNA glycolsylases cleave the N-glycosyl bond between the sugar and the damaged base, creating an AP (apurinic/apyrimidinic) site. The FpgNei DNA glycosylases represent one of the two structural superfamilies of DNA glycosylases that recognize oxidized bases (the other is the HTH-GPD superfamily exemplified by Escherichia coli Nth). Most FpgNei DNA glycosylases use their N-terminal proline residue as the key catalytic nucleophile, and the reaction proceeds via a Schiff base intermediate. One exception is mouse Nei-like glycosylase 3 (Neil3) which forms a Schiff base intermediate via its N-terminal valine. In addition to this FpgNei_N domain, FpgNei proteins have a helix-two-turn-helix (H2TH) domain and a zinc (or zincless)-finger motif which also contribute residues to the active site. FpgNei DNA glycosylases have a broad substrate specificity. They are bifunctional, in addition to the glycosylase (recognition) activity, they have a lyase (cleaving) activity on the phosphodiester backbone of the DNA at the AP site. This superfamily includes eukaryotic, bacterial, and viral proteins.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €²ž¢€0€0€ €‚2cd08774, 14-3-3, 14-3-3 domain. 14-3-3 domain is an essential part of 14-3-3 proteins, a ubiquitous class of regulatory, phosphoserine/threonine-binding proteins found in all eukaryotic cells, including yeast, protozoa and mammalian cells. 14-3-3 proteins play important roles in many biological processes that are regulated by phosphorylation, including cell cycle regulation, cell proliferation, protein trafficking, metabolic regulation and apoptosis. More than 300 binding partners of the 14-3-3 domain have been identified in all subcellular compartments and include transcription factors, signaling molecules, tumor suppressors, biosynthetic enzymes, cytoskeletal proteins and apoptosis factors. 14-3-3 binding can alter the conformation, localization, stability, phosphorylation state, activity as well as molecular interactions of a target protein. They function only as dimers, some preferring strictly homodimeric interaction, while others form heterodimers. Binding of the 14-3-3 domain to its target occurs in a phosphospecific manner where it binds to one of two consensus sequences of their target proteins; RSXpSXP (mode-1) and RXXXpSXP (mode-2). In some instances, 14-3-3 domain containing proteins are involved in regulation and signaling of a number of cellular processes in phosphorylation-independent manner. Many organisms express multiple isoforms: there are seven mammalian 14-3-3 family members (beta, gamma, eta, theta, epsilon, sigma, zeta), each encoded by a distinct gene, while plants contain up to 13 isoforms. The flexible C-terminal segment of 14-3-3 isoforms shows the highest sequence variability and may significantly contribute to individual isoform uniqueness by playing an important regulatory role by occupying the ligand binding groove and blocking the binding of inappropriate ligands in a distinct manner. Elevated amounts of 14-3-3 proteins are found in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. In protozoa, like Plasmodium or Cryptosporidium parvum 14-3-3 proteins play an important role in key steps of parasite development.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €'£¢€0€0€ €‚cd08775, DED_Caspase-like_r2, Death effector domain, repeat 2, of initator caspase-like proteins.

The LOTUS containing proteins are germline-specific and are found in the nuage/polar granules of germ cells. Tudor-containing protein 5 and 7 belong to the evolutionary conserved Tudor domain-containing protein (TDRD) family involved in germ cell development. In mice, TDRD5 and TDRD7 are components of the intermitochondrial cements (IMCs) and the chromatoid bodies (CBs), which are cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein granules involved in RNA processing for spermatogenesis. Oskar protein is a critical component of the pole plasm in the Drosophila oocyte, which is required for germ cell formation.

SRPBCC domains have a deep hydrophobic ligand-binding pocket. STARD4 plays an important role in steroidogenesis, trafficking cholesterol into mitochondria. It specifically binds cholesterol, and demonstrates limited binding to another sterol, 7a-hydroxycholesterol. STARD4 and STARD5 are ubiquitously expressed, with highest levels in liver and kidney. STRAD5 functions in the kidney within the proximal tubule cells where it is associated with the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER), and may participate in ER-associated cholesterol transport.

The START domain family belongs to the SRPBCC (START/RHO_alpha_C/PITP/Bet_v1/CoxG/CalC) domain superfamily of proteins that bind hydrophobic ligands. SRPBCC domains have a deep hydrophobic ligand-binding pocket. STARD10 binds phophatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine. This protein is widely expressed and is synthesized constitutively in many organs. It may function in the liver in the export of phospholipids into bile. It is concentrated in the sperm flagellum, and may play a role in energy metabolism. In the mammary gland it may participate in the enrichment of lipids in milk, and be a potential marker of differentiation. Its expression is induced in this gland during gestation and lactation. It is overexpressed in mammary tumors from Neu/ErbB2 transgenic mice, in several breast carcinoma cell lines, and in 35% of primary human breast cancers, and may cooperate with c-erbB receptor signaling in breast oncogenesis. It is a potential marker of disease outcome in breast cancer; loss of STARD10 expression in breast cancer strongly predicts an aggressive disease course. The lipid transfer activity of STRAD10 is downregulated by phosphorylation of its Ser284 by CK2 (casein kinase 2).¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €²ð¢€0€0€ €‚Êcd08872, START_STARD11-like, Ceramide-binding START domain of mammalian STARD11 and related domains.

The START domain family belongs to the SRPBCC (START/RHO_alpha_C/PITP/Bet_v1/CoxG/CalC) domain superfamily of proteins that bind hydrophobic ligands. SRPBCC domains have a deep hydrophobic ligand-binding pocket. STARD11 can mediate transfer of the natural ceramide isomers, dihydroceramide and phytoceramide, as well as ceramides having C14, C16, C18, and C20 chains. They can also transfer diacylglycerol, but with a lower efficiency. STARD11 is synthesized from two major transcripts: a larger one encoding Goodpasture antigen-binding protein (GPBP)/ceramide transporter long form (CERTL); and a smaller one encoding GPBPdelta26/CERT, which is deleted for 26 amino acids. Both splicing variants mediate ceramide transfer from the ER to the Golgi, in a non-vesicular manner. It is likely that these two carry out different functions in specific sub-cellular locations. These proteins have roles in brain homeostasis and disease processes. GPBP/CERTL exists in multiple isoforms originating from alternative translation initiation sites and post-translational modifications. Goodpasture syndrome is a human disorder caused by antibodies directed against the a3-chain of collagen type IV. GPBP/CERTL binds and phosphorylates this antigen. The human gene encoding STARD11 is referred to as COL4A3BP referring to its collagen binding function. It is unknown whether the ceramide-transfer function of GPBP/CERTL is related to this collagen interaction. The expression of GPBP/CERTL is elevated in these and other spontaneous autoimmune disorders including cutaneous lupus erythematosus, pemphigoid, and lichen planus.

In mammalian type FAS cycles, ketoacyl synthase forms acetoacetyl-ACP which is reduced by the NADP-dependent beta-ketoacyl reductase (KR), forming beta-hydroxyacyl-ACP, which is in turn dehydrated by dehydratase to a beta-enoyl intermediate, which is reduced by NADP-dependent beta-enoyl reductase (ER). Polyketide syntheses also proceeds via the addition of 2-carbon units as in fatty acid synthesis. The complex SDR NADP binding motif, GGXGXXG, is often present, but is not strictly conserved in each instance of the module. This subfamily includes the KR domain of the Lyngbya majuscule Jam J, -K, and #L which are encoded on the jam gene cluster and are involved in the synthesis of the Jamaicamides (neurotoxins); Lyngbya majuscule Jam P belongs to a different KR_FAS_SDR_x subfamily. SDRs are a functionally diverse family of oxidoreductases that have a single domain with a structurally conserved Rossmann fold (alpha/beta folding pattern with a central beta-sheet), an NAD(P)(H)-binding region, and a structurally diverse C-terminal region. Classical SDRs are typically about 250 residues long, while extended SDRs are approximately 350 residues. Sequence identity between different SDR enzymes are typically in the 15-30% range, but the enzymes share the Rossmann fold NAD-binding motif and characteristic NAD-binding and catalytic sequence patterns. These enzymes catalyze a wide range of activities including the metabolism of steroids, cofactors, carbohydrates, lipids, aromatic compounds, and amino acids, and act in redox sensing. Classical SDRs have an TGXXX[AG]XG cofactor binding motif and a YXXXK active site motif, with the Tyr residue of the active site motif serving as a critical catalytic residue (Tyr-151, human prostaglandin dehydrogenase (PGDH) numbering). In addition to the Tyr and Lys, there is often an upstream Ser (Ser-138, PGDH numbering) and/or an Asn (Asn-107, PGDH numbering) contributing to the active site; while substrate binding is in the C-terminal region, which determines specificity. The standard reaction mechanism is a 4-pro-S hydride transfer and proton relay involving the conserved Tyr and Lys, a water molecule stabilized by Asn, and nicotinamide. Extended SDRs have additional elements in the C-terminal region, and typically have a TGXXGXXG cofactor binding motif. Complex (multidomain) SDRs such as ketoreductase domains of fatty acid synthase have a GGXGXXG NAD(P)-binding motif and an altered active site motif (YXXXN). Fungal type KRs have a TGXXXGX(1-2)G NAD(P)-binding motif. Some atypical SDRs have lost catalytic activity and/or have an unusual NAD(P)-binding motif and missing or unusual active site residues. Reactions catalyzed within the SDR family include isomerization, decarboxylation, epimerization, C=N bond reduction, dehydratase activity, dehalogenation, Enoyl-CoA reduction, and carbonyl-alcohol oxidoreduction.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €Ý ¢€0€0€ €‚xcd08956, KR_3_FAS_SDR_x, beta-ketoacyl reductase (KR) domain of fatty acid synthase (FAS), subgroup 3, complex (x). Ketoreductase, a module of the multidomain polyketide synthase (PKS), has 2 subdomains, each corresponding to a SDR family monomer. The C-terminal subdomain catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of the beta-carbonyl of a polyketide to a hydroxyl group, a step in the biosynthesis of polyketides, such as erythromycin. The N-terminal subdomain, an interdomain linker, is a truncated Rossmann fold which acts to stabilizes the catalytic subdomain. Unlike typical SDRs, the isolated domain does not oligomerize but is composed of 2 subdomains, each resembling an SDR monomer. The active site resembles that of typical SDRs, except that the usual positions of the catalytic Asn and Tyr are swapped, so that the canonical YXXXK motif changes to YXXXN. Modular PKSs are multifunctional structures in which the makeup recapitulates that found in (and may have evolved from) FAS. In some instances, such as porcine FAS, an enoyl reductase (ER) module is inserted between the sub-domains. Fatty acid synthesis occurs via the stepwise elongation of a chain (which is attached to acyl carrier protein, ACP) with 2-carbon units. Eukaryotic systems consists of large, multifunctional synthases (type I) while bacterial, type II systems, use single function proteins. Fungal fatty acid synthesis uses a dodecamer of 6 alpha and 6 beta subunits. In mammalian type FAS cycles, ketoacyl synthase forms acetoacetyl-ACP which is reduced by the NADP-dependent beta-KR, forming beta-hydroxyacyl-ACP, which is in turn dehydrated by dehydratase to a beta-enoyl intermediate, which is reduced by NADP-dependent beta- ER. Polyketide synthesis also proceeds via the addition of 2-carbon units as in fatty acid synthesis. The complex SDR NADP-binding motif, GGXGXXG, is often present, but is not strictly conserved in each instance of the module. This subfamily includes KR domains found in many multidomain PKSs, including six of seven Sorangium cellulosum PKSs (encoded by spiDEFGHIJ) which participate in the synthesis of the polyketide scaffold of the cytotoxic spiroketal polyketide spirangien. These seven PKSs have either a single PKS module (SpiF), two PKR modules (SpiD,-E,-I,-J), or three PKS modules (SpiG,-H). This subfamily includes the second KR domains of SpiE,-G, I, and -J, both KR domains of SpiD, and the third KR domain of SpiH. The single KR domain of SpiF, the first and second KR domains of SpiH, the first KR domains of SpiE,-G,- I, and -J, and the third KR domain of SpiG, belong to a different KR_FAS_SDR subfamily.

It has been proposed that the active site in Bordetella WbmG and WbmH cannot function as an epimerase, and that it plays a role in O-antigen synthesis pathway from UDP-2,3-diacetamido-2,3-dideoxy-l-galacturonic acid. Extended SDRs are distinct from classical SDRs. In addition to the Rossmann fold (alpha/beta folding pattern with a central beta-sheet) core region typical of all SDRs, extended SDRs have a less conserved C-terminal extension of approximately 100 amino acids. Extended SDRs are a diverse collection of proteins, and include isomerases, epimerases, oxidoreductases, and lyases; they typically have a TGXXGXXG cofactor binding motif.

PET domain is involved in protein-protein interactions and is usually found in conjunction with LIM domain, which is also a protein-protein interaction domain. The PET containing proteins serve as adaptors or scaffolds to support the assembly of multimeric protein complexes. The PET domain has been found at the N-terminal of four known groups of proteins: prickle, testin, LIMPETin/LIM-9 and overexpressed breast tumor protein (OEBT). Prickle has been implicated in regulation of cell movement through its association with the Dishevelled (Dsh) protein in the planar cell polarity (PCP) pathway. Testin is a cytoskeleton associated focal adhesion protein that localizes along actin stress fibers, at cell contact areas, and at focal adhesion plaques. It interacts with a variety of cytoskeletal proteins, including zyxin, mena, VASP, talin, and actin, and is involved in cell motility and adhesion events. Knockout mice experiments reveal tumor repressor function of Testin. LIMPETin/LIM-9 contains an N-terminal PET domain and 6 LIM domains at the C-terminal. In Schistosoma mansoni, where LIMPETin was first identified, it is down regulated in sexually mature adult females compared to sexually immature adult females and adult males. Its differential expression indicates that it is a transcription regulator. In C. elegans, LIM-9 may play a role in regulating the assembly and maintenance of the muscle A-band by forming a protein complex with SCPL-1 and UNC-89 and other proteins. OEBT displays a PET domain with two LIM domains, and is predicted to be localized in the nucleus with a possible role in cancer differentiation.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €ôA¢€0€0€ €‚´cd09030, DUF1425, Putative periplasmic lipoprotein.

This superfamily includes the Bro1-like domains of mammalian Alix (apoptosis-linked gene-2 interacting protein X), His-Domain type N23 protein tyrosine phosphatase (HD-PTP, also known as PTPN23), RhoA-binding proteins Rhophilin-1 and Rhophilin-2, Brox, Bro1 and Rim20 (also known as PalA) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and related domains. Alix, HD-PTP, Brox, Bro1 and Rim20 interact with the ESCRT (Endosomal Sorting Complexes Required for Transport) system. Alix, also known as apoptosis-linked gene-2 interacting protein 1 (AIP1), participates in membrane remodeling processes during the budding of enveloped viruses, vesicle budding inside late endosomal multivesicular bodies (MVBs), and the abscission reactions of mammalian cell division. It also functions in apoptosis. HD-PTP functions in cell migration and endosomal trafficking, Bro1 in endosomal trafficking, and Rim20 in the response to the external pH via the Rim101 pathway. Bro1-like domains are boomerang-shaped, and part of the domain is a tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR)-like structure. Bro1-like domains bind components of the ESCRT-III complex: CHMP4 (in the case of Alix, HD-PTP, and Brox) and Snf7 (in the case of yeast Bro1, and Rim20). The single domain protein human Brox, and the isolated Bro1-like domains of Alix, HD-PTP and Rhophilin can bind human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) nucleocapsid. Alix, HD-PTP, Bro1, and Rim20 also have a V-shaped (V) domain, which in the case of Alix, has been shown to be a dimerization domain and to contain a binding site for the retroviral late assembly (L) domain YPXnL motif, which is partially conserved in this superfamily. Alix, HD-PTP and Bro1 also have a proline-rich region (PRR); the Alix PRR binds multiple partners. Rhophilin-1, and -2, in addition to this Bro1-like domain, have an N-terminal Rho-binding domain and a C-terminal PDZ (PS.D.-95, Disc-large, ZO-1) domain. HD-PTP is encoded by the PTPN23 gene, a tumor suppressor gene candidate frequently absent in human kidney, breast, lung, and cervical tumors.

C-terminal domain of fatty acyl CoA reductases, a family of SDR-like proteins. SDRs or short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases are Rossmann-fold NAD(P)H-binding proteins. Many proteins in this FAR_C family may function as fatty acyl-CoA reductases (FARs), acting on medium and long chain fatty acids, and have been reported to be involved in diverse processes such as the biosynthesis of insect pheromones, plant cuticular wax production, and mammalian wax biosynthesis. In Arabidopsis thaliana, proteins with this particular architecture have also been identified as the MALE STERILITY 2 (MS2) gene product, which is implicated in male gametogenesis. Mutations in MS2 inhibit the synthesis of exine (sporopollenin), rendering plants unable to reduce pollen wall fatty acids to corresponding alcohols. The function of this C-terminal domain is unclear.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €³¢€0€0€ €‚Lcd09073, ExoIII_AP-endo, Escherichia coli exonuclease III (ExoIII)-like apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonucleases. The ExoIII family AP endonucleases belong to the large EEP (exonuclease/endonuclease/phosphatase) superfamily that contains functionally diverse enzymes that share a common catalytic mechanism of cleaving phosphodiester bonds. AP endonucleases participate in the DNA base excision repair (BER) pathway. AP sites are one of the most common lesions in cellular DNA. During BER, the damaged DNA is first recognized by DNA glycosylase. AP endonucleases then catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of the phosphodiester bond 5' to the AP site, which is then followed by the coordinated actions of DNA polymerase, deoxyribose phosphatase, and DNA ligase. If left unrepaired, AP sites block DNA replication, which have both mutagenic and cytotoxic effects. AP endonucleases can carry out a wide range of excision and incision reactions on DNA, including 3'-5' exonuclease, 3'-deoxyribose phosphodiesterase, 3'-phosphatase, and occasionally, nonspecific DNase activities. Different AP endonuclease enzymes catalyze the different reactions with different efficiences. Many organisms have two functional AP endonucleases, for example, APE1/Ref-1 and Ape2 in humans, Apn1 and Apn2 in bakers yeast, Nape and NExo in Neisseria meningitides, and exonuclease III (ExoIII) and endonuclease IV (EndoIV) in Escherichia coli. Usually, one of the two is the dominant AP endonuclease, the other has weak AP endonuclease activity, but exhibits strong 3'-5' exonuclease, 3'-deoxyribose phosphodiesterase, and 3'-phosphatase activities. Class II AP endonucleases have been classified into two families, designated ExoIII and EndoIV, based on their homology to the Escherichia coli enzymes. This family contains the ExoIII family; the EndoIV family belongs to a different superfamily.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €»¢€0€0€ €‚Icd09074, INPP5c, Catalytic domain of inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases. Inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases (5-phosphatases) are signal-modifying enzymes, which hydrolyze the 5-phosphate from the inositol ring of specific 5-position phosphorylated phosphoinositides (PIs) and inositol phosphates (IPs), such as PI(4,5)P2, PI(3,4,5)P3, PI(3,5)P2, I(1,4,5)P3, and I(1,3,4,5)P4. These enzymes are Mg2+-dependent, and belong to the large EEP (exonuclease/endonuclease/phosphatase) superfamily that contains functionally diverse enzymes that share a common catalytic mechanism of cleaving phosphodiester bonds. In addition to this INPP5c domain, 5-phosphatases often contain additional domains and motifs, such as the SH2 domain, the Sac-1 domain, the proline-rich domain (PRD), CAAX, RhoGAP (RhoGTPase-activating protein), and SKICH [SKIP (skeletal muscle- and kidney-enriched inositol phosphatase) carboxyl homology] domains, that are important for protein-protein interactions and/or for the subcellular localization of these enzymes. 5-phosphatases incorporate into large signaling complexes, and regulate diverse cellular processes including postsynaptic vesicular trafficking, insulin signaling, cell growth and survival, and endocytosis. Loss or gain of function of 5-phosphatases is implicated in certain human diseases. This family also contains a functionally unrelated nitric oxide transport protein, Cimex lectularius (bedbug) nitrophorin, which catalyzes a heme-assisted S-nitrosation of a proximal thiolate; the heme however binds at a site distinct from the active site of the 5-phosphatases.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €¼¢€0€0€ €‚Æcd09075, DNase1-like, Deoxyribonuclease 1 and related proteins. This family includes Deoxyribonuclease 1 (DNase1, EC 3.1.21.1) and related proteins. DNase1, also known as DNase I, is a Ca2+, Mg2+/Mn2+-dependent secretory endonuclease, first isolated from bovine pancreas extracts. It cleaves DNA preferentially at phosphodiester linkages next to a pyrimidine nucleotide, producing 5'-phosphate terminated polynucleotides with a free hydroxyl group on position 3'. It generally produces tetranucleotides. DNase1 substrates include single-stranded DNA, double-stranded DNA, and chromatin. This enzyme may be responsible for apoptotic DNA fragmentation. Other deoxyribonucleases in this subfamily include human DNL1L (human DNase I lysosomal-like, also known as DNASE1L1, Xib and DNase X ), human DNASE1L2 (also known as DNAS1L2), and DNASE1L3 (also known as DNAS1L3, nhDNase, LS-DNase, DNase Y, and DNase gamma). DNASE1L3 is also implicated in apoptotic DNA fragmentation. DNase1 is also a cytoskeletal protein which binds actin. A recombinant form of human DNase1 is used as a mucoactive therapy in patients with cystic fibrosis; it hydrolyzes the extracellular DNA in sputum and reduces its viscosity. Mutations in the gene encoding DNase1 have been associated with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, a multifactorial autoimmune disease. This family also includes a subfamily of mostly uncharacterized proteins, which includes Mycoplasma pulmonis MnuA, a membrane-associated nuclease. The in vivo role of MnuA is as yet undetermined.

These retrotranspons belong to the subtype 2, L1-clade. LINES can be classified into two subtypes. Subtype 2 has two ORFs: the second (ORF2) encodes a modular protein consisting of an N-terminal apurine/apyrimidine endonuclease domain (EN), a central reverse transcriptase, and a zinc-finger-like domain at the C-terminus. LINE-1/L1 elements (full length and truncated) comprise about 17% of the human genome. This endonuclease nicks the genomic DNA at the consensus target sequence 5'TTTT-AA3' producing a ribose 3'-hydroxyl end as a primer for reverse transcription of associated template RNA. This subgroup also includes the endonuclease of Xenopus laevis Tx1, another member of the L1-clade.

Subtype 2 has two ORFs: the second (ORF2) encodes a modular protein consisting of an N-terminal apurine/apyrimidine endonuclease domain (EN), a central reverse transcriptase, and a zinc-finger-like domain at the C-terminus. Most non-LTR retrotransposons are inserted throughout the host genome; however, many retrotransposons of the R1 clade exhibit target-specific retrotransposition. This family includes the endonucleases of SART1 and R1bm, from the silkworm Bombyx mori, which belong to the R1-clade.

Sphingomyelinases (SMase) are phosphodiesterases that catalyze the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin to ceramide and phosphorylcholine. Eukaryotic SMases have been classified according to their pH optima and are known as acid SMase, alkaline SMase, and neutral SMase (nSMase). Eukaryotic proteins in this family are nSMases, and are activated by a variety of stress-inducing agents such as cytokines or UV radiation. Ceramides and other metabolic derivatives, including sphingosine, are lipid "second messenger" molecules that participate in the regulation of stress-induced cellular responses, including cell death, adhesion, differentiation, and proliferation. Bacterial neutral SMases, which also belong to this domain family, are secreted proteins that act as membrane-damaging virulence factors. They promote colonization of the host tissue.

It is part of a putative two component signal transduction system designated rgfBDAC (the rgf locus was identified in a screen for mutants of Streptococcus agalactiae with altered binding to fibrinogen). RgfA,-C,and -D do not belong to this superfamily: rgfA encodes a putative response regulator, and rgfC, a putative histidine kinase. All four genes are co-transcribed, and may be involved in regulating expression of bacterial cell surface components.

Human TDP2, also known as TTRAP (TRAF/TNFR-associated factors, and tumor necrosis factor receptor/TNFR-associated protein), is a 5'-tyrosyl DNA phosphodiesterase. It is required for the efficient repair of topoisomerase II-induced DNA double strand breaks. The topoisomerase is covalently linked by a phosphotyrosyl bond to the 5'-terminus of the break. TDP2 cleaves the DNA 5'-phosphodiester bond and restores 5'-phosphate termini, needed for subsequent DNA ligation, and hence repair of the break. TDP2 and 3'-tyrosyl DNA phosphodiesterase (TDP1) are complementary activities; together, they allow cells to remove trapped topoisomerase from both 3'- and 5'-DNA termini. TTRAP has been reported as being involved in apoptosis, embryonic development, and transcriptional regulation, and it may inhibit the activation of nuclear factor-kB.

CDT is a secreted protein toxin produced by a number of Gram-negative disease-causing bacteria. CDT causes cell cycle arrest and eventual cell death in eukaryotic cells, as a result of chromosomal DNA damage caused by the catalytic, DNase I-like, CdtB subunit. Bacterial CDTs are generally comprised of three subunits, CdtA, -B and -C. CdtB is translocated into the host cell, where it acts as a genotoxin. CdtA and CdtC are needed for cell surface binding and cellular entry, and it is likely that they remain associated with the membrane, when CdtB is internalized. CdtB enters the target nucleus via nuclear translocation signal domain(s).

Nocturnin is a poly(A)-specific 3' exonuclease that specifically degrades the 3' poly(A) tail of RNA in a process known as deadenylation. This nuclease activity is manganese dependent. Nocturnin is expressed in the cytoplasm of the Xenopus laevis retinal photoreceptor cells in a rhythmic fashion, and it has been proposed that it participates in posttranscriptional regulation of the circadian clock or its outputs, and that the mRNA target(s) of this deadenylase are circadian clock-related. Saccharomyces cerevisiae CCR4p is a 3'-5' poly(A) RNA and ssDNA exonuclease. It is the catalytic subunit of the yeast mRNA deadenylase (Ccr4p/Pop2p/Not complex). This complex participates in various ways in mRNA metabolism, including transcription initiation and elongation, and mRNA degradation. The deadenylase activities of Ccr4p and nocturnin differ: nocturnin degrades poly(A), Ccr4p degrades both poly(A) and single-stranded DNA, and in contrast to Ccr4p, nocturnin appears to function in a highly processive manner.

Class II AP endonucleases have been classified into two families, designated ExoIII and EndoIV, based on their homology to the Escherichia coli enzymes exonuclease III (ExoIII) and endonuclease IV (EndoIV). This subfamily belongs to the ExoIII family; the EndoIV family belongs to a different superfamily.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €É¢€0€0€ €‚ócd09088, Ape2-like_AP-endo, Human Ape2-like subfamily of the ExoIII family purinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonucleases. This subfamily includes human APE2, Saccharomyces cerevisiae Apn2/Eth1, and related proteins. These are Escherichia coli exonuclease III (ExoIII)-like AP endonucleases and they belong to the large EEP (exonuclease/endonuclease/phosphatase) superfamily that contains functionally diverse enzymes that share a common catalytic mechanism of cleaving phosphodiester bonds. AP endonucleases participate in the DNA base excision repair (BER) pathway. AP sites are one of the most common lesions in cellular DNA. During BER, the damaged DNA is first recognized by DNA glycosylase. AP endonucleases then catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of the phosphodiester bond 5' to the AP site, and this is followed by the coordinated actions of DNA polymerase, deoxyribose phosphatase, and DNA ligase. If left unrepaired, AP sites block DNA replication, and have both mutagenic and cytotoxic effects. AP endonucleases can carry out a variety of excision and incision reactions on DNA, including 3'-5' exonuclease, 3'-deoxyribose phosphodiesterase, 3'-phosphatase, and occasionally, nonspecific DNase activities. Different AP endonuclease enzymes catalyze the different reactions with different efficiences. Many organisms have two AP endonucleases, usually one is the dominant AP endonuclease, the other has weak AP endonuclease activity. For examples, Ape1 and Ape2 in humans, and Apn1 and Apn2 in bakers yeast. Ape2 and Apn2/Eth1 are both found in this subfamily, and have the weaker AP endonuclease activity. Ape2 shows strong 3'-5' exonuclease and 3'-phosphodiesterase activities; it can reduce the mutagenic consequences of attack by reactive oxygen species by removing 3'-end adenine opposite from 8-oxoG, in addition to repairing 3'-damaged termini. Apn2/Eth1 exhibits AP endonuclease activity, but has 30-40 fold more active 3'-phosphodiesterase and 3'-5' exonuclease activities. Class II AP endonucleases have been classified into two families, designated ExoIII and EndoIV, based on their homology to the Escherichia coli enzymes exonuclease III (ExoIII) and endonuclease IV (EndoIV). This subfamily belongs to the ExoIII family; the EndoIV family belongs to a different superfamily.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €Ê¢€0€0€ €‚ ,cd09089, INPP5c_Synj, Catalytic inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (INPP5c) domain of synaptojanins. This subfamily contains the INPP5c domains of two human synaptojanins, synaptojanin 1 (Synj1) and synaptojanin 2 (Synj2), and related proteins. It belongs to a family of Mg2+-dependent inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases, which hydrolyze the 5-phosphate from the inositol ring of various 5-position phosphorylated phosphoinositides (PIs) and inositol phosphates (IPs). They belong to the large EEP (exonuclease/endonuclease/phosphatase) superfamily that contains functionally diverse enzymes that share a common catalytic mechanism of cleaving phosphodiester bonds. Synj1 occurs as two main isoforms: a brain enriched 145 KDa protein (Synj1-145) and a ubiquitously expressed 170KDa protein (Synj1-170). Synj1-145 participates in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. The primary substrate of the Synj1-145 INPP5c domain is PI(4,5)P2, which it converts to PI4P. Synj1-145 may work with membrane curvature sensors/generators (such as endophilin) to remove PI(4,5)P2 from curved membranes. The recruitment of the INPP5c domain of Synj1-145 to endophilin-induced membranes leads to a fragmentation and condensation of these structures. The PI(4,5)P2 to PI4P conversion may cooperate with dynamin to produce membrane fission. In addition to this INPP5c domain, Synjs contain an N-terminal Sac1-like domain; the Sac1 domain can dephosphorylate a variety of phosphoinositides in vitro. Synj2 can hydrolyze phosphatidylinositol diphosphate (PIP2) to phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP). Synj2 occurs as multiple alternative splice variants in various tissues. These variants share the INPP5c domain and the Sac1 domain. Synj2A is recruited to the mitochondria via its interaction with OMP25 (a mitochondrial outer membrane protein). Synj2B is found at nerve terminals in the brain and at the spermatid manchette in testis. Synj2B undergoes further alternative splicing to give 2B1 and 2B2. In clathrin-mediated endocytosis, Synj2 participates in the formation of clathrin-coated pits, and perhaps also in vesicle decoating. Rac1 GTPase regulates the intracellular localization of Synj2 forms, but not Synj1. Synj2 may contribute to the role of Rac1 in cell migration and invasion, and is a potential target for therapeutic intervention in malignant tumors.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €Ë¢€0€0€ €‚@cd09090, INPP5c_ScInp51p-like, Catalytic inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (INPP5c) domain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Inp51p, Inp52p, and Inp53p, and related proteins. This subfamily contains the INPP5c domain of three Saccharomyces cerevisiae synaptojanin-like inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases (INP51, INP52, and INP53), Schizosaccharomyces pombe synaptojanin (SPsynaptojanin), and related proteins. It belongs to a family of Mg2+-dependent inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases, which hydrolyze the 5-phosphate from the inositol ring of various 5-position phosphorylated phosphoinositides (PIs) and inositol phosphates (IPs), and to the large EEP (exonuclease/endonuclease/phosphatase) superfamily that contains functionally diverse enzymes that share a common catalytic mechanism of cleaving phosphodiester bonds. In addition to this INPP5c domain, these proteins have an N-terminal catalytic Sac1-like domain (found in other proteins including the phophoinositide phosphatase Sac1p), and a C-terminal proline-rich domain (PRD). The Sac1 domain allows Inp52p and Inp53p to recognize and dephosphorylate a wider range of substrates including PI3P, PI4P, and PI(3,5)P2. The Sac1 domain of Inp51p is non-functional. Disruption of any two of INP51, INP52, and INP53, in S. cerevisiae leads to abnormal vacuolar and plasma membrane morphology. During hyperosmotic stress, Inp52p and Inp53p localize at actin patches, where they may facilitate the hydrolysis of PI(4,5)P2, and consequently promote actin rearrangement to regulate cell growth. SPsynaptojanin is also active against a range of soluble and lipid inositol phosphates, including I(1,4,5)P3, I(1,3,4,5)P4, I(1,4,5,6)P4, PI(4,5)P2, and PIP3. Transformation of S. cerevisiae with a plasmid expressing the SPsynaptojanin 5-phosphatase domain rescues inp51/inp52/inp53 triple-mutant strains.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €Ì¢€0€0€ €‚Øcd09091, INPP5c_SHIP, Catalytic inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (INPP5c) domain of SH2 domain containing inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase-1 and -2, and related proteins. This subfamily contains the INPP5c domain of SHIP1 (SH2 domain containing inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase-1, also known as SHIP/INPP5D), and SHIP2 (also known as INPPL1). It belongs to a family of Mg2+-dependent inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases, which hydrolyze the 5-phosphate from the inositol ring of various 5-position phosphorylated phosphoinositides (PIs) and inositol phosphates (IPs), and to the large EEP (exonuclease/endonuclease/phosphatase) superfamily that contains functionally diverse enzymes that share a common catalytic mechanism of cleaving phosphodiester bonds. Both SHIP1 and -2 catalyze the dephosphorylation of the PI, phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PI(3,4,5)P3], to phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate [PI(3,4)P2]. SHIP1 also converts inositol-1,3,4,5- polyphosphate [I(1,3,4,5)P4] to inositol-1,3,4-polyphosphate [I(1,3,4)P3]. SHIP1 and SHIP2 have little overlap in their in vivo functions. SHIP1 is a negative regulator of cell growth and plays a major part in mediating the inhibitory signaling in B cells; it is predominantly expressed in hematopoietic cells. SHIP2 is as an inhibitor of the insulin signaling pathway, and is implicated in actin structure remodeling, cell adhesion and cell spreading, receptor endocytosis and degradation, and in the JIP1-mediated JNK pathway. SHIP2 is widely expressed, most prominently in brain, heart and in skeletal muscle. In addition to this INPP5c domain, SHIP1 has an N-terminal SH2 domain, two NPXY motifs, and a C-terminal proline-rich region (PRD), while SHIP2 has an N-terminal SH2 domain, a C-terminal proline-rich domain (PRD), which includes a WW-domain binding motif (PPLP), an NPXY motif, and a sterile alpha motif (SAM) domain. The gene encoding SHIP2 is a candidate gene for conferring a predisposition for type 2 diabetes.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €Í¢€0€0€ €‚§cd09092, INPP5A, Type I inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase I. Type I inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase I (INPP5A) hydrolyzes the 5-phosphate from inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate [I(1,3,4,5)P4] and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [I(1,4,5)P3]. It belongs to a family of Mg2+-dependent inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases, which hydrolyze the 5-phosphate from the inositol ring of various 5-position phosphorylated phosphoinositides (PIs) and inositol phosphates (IPs), and to the large EEP (exonuclease/endonuclease/phosphatase) superfamily that contains functionally diverse enzymes that share a common catalytic mechanism of cleaving phosphodiester bonds. As the substrates of INPP5A mobilize intracellular calcium ions, INPP5A is a calcium signal-terminating enzyme. In platelets, phosphorylated pleckstrin binds and activates INPP5A in a 1:1 complex, and accelerates the degradation of the calcium ion-mobilizing I(1,4,5)P3.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €΢€0€0€ €‚ —cd09093, INPP5c_INPP5B, Catalytic inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (INPP5c) domain of Type II inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase I, Oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe 1, and related proteins. This subfamily contains the INPP5c domain of type II inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase I (INPP5B), Oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe 1 (OCRL-1), and related proteins. It belongs to a family of Mg2+-dependent inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases, which hydrolyze the 5-phosphate from the inositol ring of various 5-position phosphorylated phosphoinositides (PIs) and inositol phosphates (IPs), and to the large EEP (exonuclease/endonuclease/phosphatase) superfamily that contains functionally diverse enzymes that share a common catalytic mechanism of cleaving phosphodiester bonds. INPP5B and OCRL1 preferentially hydrolyze the 5-phosphate of phosphatidylinositol (4,5)- bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] and phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)- trisphosphate [PI(3,4,5)P3]. INPP5B can also hydrolyze soluble inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate [I(1,4,5)P3] and inositol (1,3,4,5)-tetrakisphosphate [I(1,3,4,5)P4]. INPP5B participates in the endocytic pathway and in the early secretory pathway. In the latter, it may function in retrograde ERGIC (ER-to-Golgi intermediate compartment)-to-ER transport; it binds specific RAB proteins within the secretory pathway. In the endocytic pathway, it binds RAB5 and during endocytosis, may function in a RAB5-controlled cascade for converting PI(3,4,5)P3 to phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P). This cascade may link growth factor signaling and membrane dynamics. Mutation in OCRL1 is implicated in Lowe syndrome, an X-linked recessive multisystem disorder, which includes defects in eye, brain, and kidney function, and in Type 2 Dent's disease, a disorder with only the renal symptoms. OCRL-1 may have a role in membrane trafficking within the endocytic pathway and at the trans-Golgi network, and may participate in actin dynamics or signaling from endomembranes. OCRL1 and INPP5B have overlapping functions: deletion of both 5-phosphatases in mice is embryonic lethal, deletion of OCRL1 alone has no phenotype, and deletion of Inpp5b alone has only a mild phenotype (male sterility). Several of the proteins that interact with OCRL1 also bind INPP5B, for examples, inositol polyphosphate phosphatase interacting protein of 27kDa (IPIP27)A and B (also known as Ses1 and 2), and endocytic signaling adaptor APPL1. OCRL1, but not INPP5B, binds clathrin heavy chain, the plasma membrane AP2 adaptor subunit alpha-adaptin. In addition to this INPP5c domain, most proteins in this subfamily have a C-terminal RhoGAP (GTPase-activator protein [GAP] for Rho-like small GTPases) domain.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €Ï¢€0€0€ €‚‘cd09094, INPP5c_INPP5J-like, Catalytic inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (INPP5c) domain of inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase J and related proteins.

INPP5c domain of Inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatase E (also called type IV or 72 kDa 5-phosphatase), rat pharbin, and related proteins. This subfamily belongs to a family of Mg2+-dependent inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases, which hydrolyze the 5-phosphate from the inositol ring of various 5-position phosphorylated phosphoinositides (PIs) and inositol phosphates (IPs), and to the large EEP (exonuclease/endonuclease/phosphatase) superfamily that contains functionally diverse enzymes that share a common catalytic mechanism of cleaving phosphodiester bonds. INPP5E hydrolyzes the 5-phosphate from PI(3,5)P2, PI(4,5)P2 and PI(3,4,5)P3, forming PI3P, PI4P, and PI(3,4)P2, respectively. It is a very potent PI(3,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase. Its intracellular localization is chiefly cytosolic, with pronounced perinuclear/Golgi localization. INPP5E also has an N-terminal proline rich domain (PRD) and a C-terminal CAAX motif. This protein is expressed in a variety of tissues, including the breast, brain, testis, and haemopoietic cells. It is differentially expressed in several cancers, for example, it is up-regulated in cervical cancer and down-regulated in stomach cancer. It is a candidate target for therapeutics of obesity and related disorders, as it is expressed in the hypothalamus, and following insulin stimulation, it undergoes tyrosine phosphorylation, associates with insulin receptor substrate-1, -2, and PI3-kinase, and become active as a 5-phosphatase. INPP5E may play a role, along with other 5-phosphatases SHIP2 and SKIP, in regulating glucose homoeostasis and energy metabolism. Mice deficient in INPPE5 develop a multi-organ disorder associated with structural defects of the primary cilium.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €Ñ¢€0€0€ €‚4cd09096, Deadenylase_nocturnin, C-terminal deadenylase domain of nocturnin and related domains. This subfamily contains the C-terminal catalytic domain of the deadenylase, nocturnin, and related domains. Nocturnin is a poly(A)-specific 3' exonuclease that specifically degrades the 3' poly(A) tail of RNA in a process known as deadenylation. This nuclease activity is manganese dependent. Nocturnin is expressed in the cytoplasm of Xenopus laevis retinal photoreceptor cells in a rhythmic fashion, and it has been proposed that it participates in posttranscriptional regulation of the circadian clock or its outputs, and that the mRNA target(s) of this deadenylase are circadian clock-related. In mouse, the nocturnin gene, mNoc, is expressed in a circadian pattern in a range of tissues including retina, spleen, heart, kidney, and liver. It is highly expressed in bone-marrow stromal cells, adipocytes and hepatocytes. In mammals, nocturnin plays a role in regulating mesenchymal stem-cell lineage allocation, perhaps through regulating PPAR-gamma (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma) nuclear translocation.

CCR4 belongs to the large EEP (exonuclease/endonuclease/phosphatase) superfamily that contains functionally diverse enzymes that share a common catalytic mechanism of cleaving phosphodiester bonds. CCR4 is the major deadenylase subunit of the CCR4-NOT transcription complex, which contains two deadenylase subunits and several noncatalytic subunits. The other deadenylase subunit, Caf1 (called Pop2 in yeast), is a DEDD-type protein and does not belong in this superfamily. Saccharomyces cerevisiae CCR4 (or Ccr4p) is a 3'-5' poly(A) RNA and ssDNA exonuclease. It is the catalytic subunit of the yeast mRNA deadenylase (Ccr4p/Pop2p/Not complex). This complex participates in various ways in mRNA metabolism, including transcription initiation and elongation, and mRNA degradation. Ccr4p degrades both poly(A) and single-stranded DNA. There are two vertebrate homologs of Ccr4p, CCR4a (also called CCR4-NOT transcription complex subunit 6 or CNOT6) and CCR4b (also called CNOT6-like or CNOT6L), which independently associate with other components to form distinct CCR4-NOT multisubunit complexes. The nuclease domain of CNOT6 and CNOT6L exhibits Mg2+-dependent deadenylase activity, with specificity for poly (A) RNA as substrate. CCR4a is a component of P-bodies and is necessary for foci formation. CCR4b regulates p27/Kip1 mRNA levels, thereby influencing cell cycle progression. They both contribute to the prevention of cell death by regulating insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €Ó¢€0€0€ €‚™cd09098, INPP5c_Synj1, Catalytic inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (INPP5c) domain of synaptojanin 1.

SHIP1's enzymic activity is restricted to phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PI (3,4,5)P3] and inositol-1,3,4,5- polyphosphate [I(1,3,4,5)P4]. It converts these two phosphoinositides to phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate [PI (3,4)P2] and inositol-1,3,4-polyphosphate [I(1,3,4)P3], respectively. SHIP1 is a negative regulator of cell growth and plays a major part in mediating the inhibitory signaling in B cells; it is predominantly expressed in hematopoietic cells. In addition to this INPP5c domain, SHIP1 has an N-terminal SH2 domain, two NPXY motifs, and a C-terminal proline-rich region (PRD). SHIP1's phosphorylated NPXY motifs interact with proteins with phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domains, and facilitate the translocation of SHIP1 to the plasma membrane to hydrolyze PI(3,4,5)P3. SHIP1 generally acts to oppose the activity of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). It acts as a negative signaling molecule, reducing the levels of PI(3,4,5)P3, thereby removing the latter as a membrane-targeting signal for PH domain-containing effector molecules.

SHIP2 is widely expressed, most prominently in brain, heart and in skeletal muscle. SHIP2 is an inhibitor of the insulin signaling pathway. It is implicated in actin structure remodeling, cell adhesion and cell spreading, receptor endocytosis and degradation, and in the JIP1-mediated JNK pathway. Its interacting partners include filamin/actin, p130Cas, Shc, Vinexin, Interesectin 1, and c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK)-interacting protein 1 (JIP1). A large variety of extracellular stimuli appear to lead to the tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP2, including epidermal growth factor (EGF), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), insulin, macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). SHIP2 is localized to the cytosol in quiescent cells; following growth factor stimulation and /or cell adhesion, it relocalizes to membrane ruffles. In addition to this INPP5c domain, SHIP2 has an N-terminal SH2 domain, a C-terminal proline-rich domain (PRD), which includes a WW-domain binding motif (PPLP), an NPXY motif and a sterile alpha motif (SAM) domain.

Phosphatidic acid is an essential compound involved in signal transduction. PLDs also catalyze the transphosphatidylation of phospholipids to acceptor alcohols, by which various phospholipids can be synthesized. Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic PLDs have two HKD motifs (H-x-K-x(4)-D, where x represents any amino acid residue) that characterizes the phospholipase D (PLD) superfamily. PLDs are active as bi-lobed monomers. Each monomer contains two domains, each of which carries one copy of the HKD motif. Two HKD motifs from two domains form a single active site. PLDs utilize a common two-step ping-pong catalytic mechanism involving an enzyme-substrate intermediate to cleave phosphodiester bonds. The two histidine residues from the two HKD motifs play key roles in the catalysis. Upon substrate binding, a histidine residue from one HKD motif could function as the nucleophile, attacking the phosphodiester bond to create a covalent phosphohistidine intermediate, while the other histidine residue from the second HKD motif could serve as a general acid, stabilizing the leaving group.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €S¢€0€0€ €‚Qcd09105, PLDc_vPLD1_2_like_2, Catalytic domain, repeat 2, of vertebrate phospholipases, PLD1 and PLD2, and similar proteins.

Inorganic polyphosphate (Poly P) plays an important role in bacterial stress responses and stationary-phase survival. PPK1 is the key enzyme responsible for the synthesis of Poly P in bacteria.

Therefore, PPK1 is essential for bacterial motility, quorum sensing, biofilm formation, and the production of virulence factors and may serve as an attractive antimicrobial drug target. Dimerization is crucial for the enzymatic activity of PPK1. Each PPK1 monomer includes four structural domains, the N-terminal (N) domain, the head (H) domain, and two closely related C-terminal (C1 and C2) domains. The N domain provides the upper binding interface for the adenine ring of the ATP.

It is a monomeric protein that contains two copies of a variant HKD motif (H-x-K-x(4)-D, where x represents any amino acid residue), which consists of the highly conserved histidine and lysine residues, but lacks the aspartate residue that is well conserved in other phospholipase D (PLD, EC 3.1.4.4) enzymes. Thus, this family represents a distinct class within the PLD superfamily. Like other PLD enzymes, Tdp1 may utilize a common two-step general acid/base catalytic mechanism, involving a DNA-enzyme intermediate to cleave phosphodiester bonds. A single active site involved in phosphatidyl group transfer would be formed by the two variant HKD motifs from the N- and C-terminal domains in a pseudodimeric way.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €f¢€0€0€ €‚¨cd09124, PLDc_like_TrmB_middle, Middle phospholipase D-like domain of the transcriptional regulator TrmB and similar proteins. Middle phospholipase D (PLD)-like domain of the transcriptional regulator TrmB and similar proteins. TrmB acts as a bifunctional sugar-sensing transcriptional regulator which controls two operons encoding maltose/trehalose and maltodextrin ABC transporters of Pyrococcus fruiosus. It functions as a dimer. Full length TrmB includes an N-terminal DNA-binding domain, a C-terminal sugar-binding domain and middle region that has been named as a PLD-like domain. The middle domain displays homology to PLD enzymes, which contain one or two HKD motifs (H-x-K-x(4)-D, where x represents any amino acid residue) per chain. The HKD motif characterizes the PLD superfamily. Due to the lack of key residues related to PLD activity in the PLD-like domain, members of this subfamily are unlikely to carry PLD activity.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €g¢€0€0€ €‚åcd09126, PLDc_C_DEXD_like, C-terminal putative phospholipase D-like domain of uncharacterized prokaryotic HKD family nucleases fused to DEAD/DEAH box helicases.

There are two subclasses of PSS enzymes in bacteria: subclass I of gram-negative bacteria and subclass II of gram-positive bacteria. It is common that PSSs in gram-positive bacteria and yeast are tight membrane-associated enzymes. By contrast, the gram-negative bacterial PSSs, such as Escherichia coli PSS, are commonly bound to the ribosomes. They are peripheral membrane proteins that can interact with the surface of the inner membrane by binding to the lipid substrate (CDP-diacylglycerol) and the lipid product (phosphatidylserine). The prototypical member of this subfamily is Escherichia coli PSS (also called CDP-diacylglycerol-L-serine O-phosphatidyltransferase, EC 2.7.8.8), which catalyzes the exchange reactions between CMP and CDP-diacylglycerol, and between serine and phosphatidylserine. The phosphatidylserine is then decarboxylated by phosphatidylserine decarboxylase to yield phosphatidylethanolamine, the major phospholipid in Escherichia coli. It also catalyzes the hydrolysis of CDP-diacylglycerol to form phosphatidic acid with the release of CMP. PSS may utilize a ping-pong mechanism involving a phosphatidyl-enzyme intermediate, which is distinct from those of gram-positive bacterial phosphatidylserine synthases.

They usually function as homodimers or homotetramers that cleave DNA at defined sites of 4 to 8 bp in length, and they require Mg2+, not ATP or GTP, for catalysis. Unlike all other restriction enzymes known to date, BfiI is unique in cleaving DNA at fixed positions downstream of an asymmetric sequence in the absence of Mg2+. BfiI consists of two discrete domains with distinct functions: an N-terminal catalytic domain with non-specific nuclease activity and dimerization function that is more closely related to Nuc, an EDTA-resistant nuclease from the phospholipase D (PLD) superfamily; and a C-terminal domain that specifically recognizes its target sequences, 5'-ACTGGG-3'. BfiI presumably evolved through domain fusion of a DNA recognition domain to the catalytic Nuc-like domain from the PLD superfamily. Most PLD enzymes have two copies of the conserved HKD motif (H-x-K-x(4)-D, where x represents any amino acid residue) in a single polypeptide chain and both are required for catalytic activity. However, BfiI contains only one HKD motif per protein chain and forms a functionally active homodimer which has two DNA-binding surfaces located at the C-terminal domains but only one active site, located at the dimer interface between the two N-terminal catalytic domains that contain the two HKD motifs from both subunits. BfiI utilizes a single active site to cut both DNA strands, which represents a novel mechanism for the scission of double-stranded DNA. It uses a histidine residue from the HKD motif in one subunit as the nucleophile for the cleavage of the target phosphodiester bond in both of the anti-parallel DNA strands, while the symmetrically-related histidine residue from the HKD motif of the opposite subunit acts as the proton donor/acceptor during both strand-scission events.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €˜¢€0€0€ €‚hcd09176, PLDc_unchar6, Putative catalytic domain of uncharacterized hypothetical proteins with one or two copies of the HKD motif. Putative catalytic domain of uncharacterized hypothetical proteins with similarity to phospholipase D (PLD, EC 3.1.4.4). PLD enzymes hydrolyze phospholipid phosphodiester bonds to yield phosphatidic acid and a free polar head group. They can also catalyze transphosphatidylation of phospholipids to acceptor alcohols. Members of this subfamily contain one or two copies of the HKD motif (H-x-K-x(4)-D, where x represents any amino acid residue) that characterizes the PLD superfamily.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €™¢€0€0€ €‚fcd09177, PLDc_RE_NgoFVII, Putative catalytic domain of type II restriction enzyme NgoFVII and similar proteins. Putative catalytic domain of type II restriction enzyme NgoFVII (EC 3.1.21.4), which shows high sequence similarity to type IIs restriction endonuclease BfiI. Type II restriction endonucleases are components of restriction modification (RM) systems that protect bacteria and archaea against invading foreign DNA. They usually function as homodimers or homotetramers that cleave DNA at defined sites of 4 to 8 bp in length, and they require Mg2+, not ATP or GTP, for catalysis. The prototype of this subfamily is the NgoFVII restriction endonuclease from Neisseria gonorrhoeae. It plays an essential role in the endonucleolytic cleavage of DNA to give specific double-stranded fragments with terminal 5'-phosphates. It recognizes the double-stranded sequence GCSGC and cleaves after G-4. Members of this subfamily contain one copy of the conserved HKD motif (H-x-K-x(4)-D, where x represents any amino acid residue) per protein chain and have been classified into the phospholipase D (PLD, EC 3.1.4.4) superfamily.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €š¢€0€0€ €‚·cd09178, PLDc_N_Snf2_like, N-terminal putative catalytic domain of uncharacterized HKD family nucleases fused to putative helicases from the Snf2-like family. N-terminal putative catalytic domain of uncharacterized archaeal and prokaryotic HKD family nucleases fused to putative helicases from the Snf2-like family, which belong to the DNA/RNA helicase superfamily II (SF2). Although Snf2-like family enzymes do not possess helicase activity, they contain a helicase-like region, where seven helicase-related sequence motifs are found, similar to those in DEAD/DEAH box helicases, which represent the biggest family within the SF2 superfamily. In addition to the helicase-like region, members of this family also contain an N-terminal putative catalytic domain with one copy of the conserved HKD motif (H-x-K-x(4)-D, where x represents any amino acid residue), and have been classified as members of the phospholipase D (PLD, EC 3.1.4.4) superfamily.¡€0€ª€0€ €CDD¡€ €›¢€
