Protein Family Models

The family includes the protease PfpI Swiss:Q51732 [1]. This domain is also found in transcriptional regulators such as Swiss:Q9RJG8. [1]. 8626329. Sequence, expression in Escherichia coli, and analysis of the gene encoding a novel intracellular protease (PfpI) from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus. Halio SB, Blumentals II, Short SA, Merrill BM, Kelly RM;. J Bacteriol 1996;178:2605-2612. [2]. 15784968. AdpA, a central transcriptional regulator in the A-factor regulatory cascade that leads to morphological development and secondary metabolism in Streptomyces griseus.

The member of this family from Pyrococcus horikoshii has been solved to 2 Angstrom resolution. It is an ATP-independent intracellular protease that crystallizes as a hexameric ring. Cys-101 is proposed as the active site residue in a catalytic triad with the adjacent His-102 and a Glu residue from an adjacent monomer. A member of this family from Bacillus subtilis, GSP18, has been shown to be expressed in response to several forms of stress. A role in the degradation of small peptides has been suggested. A closely related family consists of the thiamine biosynthesis protein ThiJ and its homologs.
