Protein Family Models

This family represents the C-terminal, catalytic domain of the D-alanine--D-alanine ligase enzyme EC:6.3.2.4. D-Alanine is one of the central molecules of the cross-linking step of peptidoglycan assembly. There are three enzymes involved in the D-alanine branch of peptidoglycan biosynthesis: the pyridoxal phosphate-dependent D-alanine racemase (Alr), the ATP-dependent D-alanine:D-alanine ligase (Ddl), and the ATP-dependent D-alanine:D-alanine-adding enzyme (MurF) [3].

Biotin carboxylase is a component of the acetyl-CoA carboxylase multi-component enzyme which catalyses the first committed step in fatty acid synthesis in animals, plants and bacteria. Most of the active site residues reported in reference [1] are in this C-terminal domain. [1]. 7915138. Three-dimensional structure of the biotin carboxylase subunit. of acetyl-CoA carboxylase.

Carbamoyl-phosphate synthase catalyses the ATP-dependent synthesis of carbamyl-phosphate from glutamine or ammonia and bicarbonate. This important enzyme initiates both the urea cycle and the biosynthesis of arginine and/or pyrimidines [2]. The carbamoyl-phosphate synthase (CPS) enzyme in prokaryotes is a heterodimer of a small and large chain. The small chain promotes the hydrolysis of glutamine to ammonia, which is used by the large chain to synthesise carbamoyl phosphate. See Pfam:PF00988. The small chain has a GATase domain in the carboxyl terminus. See Pfam:PF00117. The ATP binding domain (this one) has an ATP-grasp fold. [1]. 7915138.

This family does not contain all known ATP-grasp domain members. This family includes a diverse set of enzymes that possess ATP-dependent carboxylate-amine ligase activity. [1]. 9416615.

This domain is structurally related to the PreATP-grasp domain. The family contains the N-terminus of biotin carboxylase enzymes [1,3], and propionyl-CoA carboxylase A chain [2]. [1]. 7915138.
