Protein Family Models

This presumed domain is functionally uncharacterised. This domain is found at the C-terminal of patatin-like proteins from bacteria. There is a conserved tyrosine residue and a conserved FxxxPP sequence motif. (from Pfam)

This family consists of various patatin glycoproteins from plants. The patatin protein accounts for up to 40% of the total soluble protein in potato tubers [2]. Patatin is a storage protein but it also has the enzymatic activity of lipid acyl hydrolase, catalysing the cleavage of fatty acids from membrane lipids [2]. Members of this family have been found also in vertebrates. [1]. 7808402. Solanum brevidens possesses a non-sucrose-inducible patatin gene. Banfalvi Z, Kostyal Z, Barta E;.
