Permuted papain-like amidase enzyme, YaeF/YiiX, C92 family Amidase_YiiX is a family of permuted papain-like amidases. It has amidase specificity for the amide bond between a lipid and an amino acid (or peptide). From the structure, a tetramer, each monomer is made up of a layered alpha-beta fold with a central, 6-stranded, antiparallel beta-sheet that is protected by helices on either side. The catalytic Cys154 in UniProtKB:Q74NK7, PDB:3kw0, is located on the N-terminus of helix alphaF. The two additional helices located above Cys154 contribute to the formation of the active site, where the lysine ligand is bound.
