bifunctional folylpolyglutamate synthase/dihydrofolate synthase FolC catalyzes two distinct reactions of the de novo folate biosynthetic pathway, the addition of a glutamate to dihydropteroate to form dihydrofolate and the successive additions of glutamate to tetrahydrofolate leading to folylpolyglutamate

folylpolyglutamate synthase/dihydrofolate synthase; This model represents the FolC family of folate pathway proteins. Most examples are bifunctional, active as both folylpolyglutamate synthetase (EC 6.3.2.17) and dihydrofolate synthetase (EC 6.3.2.12). The two activities are similar - ATP + glutamate + dihydropteroate or tetrahydrofolyl-[Glu](n) = ADP + orthophosphate + dihydrofolate or tetrahydrofolyl-[Glu](n+1). A mutation study of the FolC gene of E. coli suggests that both activities belong to the same active site. Because some examples are monofunctional (and these cannot be separated phylogenetically), the model is treated as subfamily, not equivalog.

Mur ligase family, glutamate ligase domain; This family contains a number of related ligase enzymes which have EC numbers 6.3.2.*. This family includes: MurC, MurD, MurE, MurF, Mpl and FolC. MurC, MurD, Mure and MurF catalyze consecutive steps in the synthesis of peptidoglycan. Peptidoglycan consists of a sheet of two sugar derivatives, with one of these N-acetylmuramic acid attaching to a small pentapeptide. The pentapeptide is is made of L-alanine, D-glutamic acid, Meso-diaminopimelic acid and D-alanyl alanine. The peptide moiety is synthesized by successively adding these amino acids to UDP-N-acetylmuramic acid. MurC transfers the L-alanine, MurD transfers the D-glutamate, MurE transfers the diaminopimelic acid, and MurF transfers the D-alanyl alanine. This family also includes Folylpolyglutamate synthase that transfers glutamate to folylpolyglutamate.

UDP-N-acetylmuramyl-tripeptide synthetase; Most members of this family are EC 6.3.2.13, UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamate--2,6-diaminopimelate ligase. An exception is Staphylococcus aureus, in which diaminopimelate is replaced by lysine in the peptidoglycan and MurE is EC 6.3.2.7. The Mycobacteria, part of the closest neighboring branch outside of the low-GC Gram-positive bacteria, use diaminopimelate. A close homolog, scoring just below the trusted cutoff, is found (with introns) in Arabidopsis thaliana. Its role is unknown.

Domains are color coded according to superfamilies
to which they have been assigned. Hits with scores that pass a domain-specific threshold
(specific hits) are drawn in bright colors.
Others (non-specific hits) and
superfamily placeholders are drawn in pastel colors.
if a domain or superfamily has been annotated with functional sites (conserved features),
they are mapped to the query sequence and indicated through sets of triangles
with the same color and shade of the domain or superfamily that provides the annotation. Mouse over the colored bars or triangles to see descriptions of the domains and features.
