Protein Family Models

This domain is found in a range of enzymes that act on branched substrates - isoamylase, pullulanase and branching enzyme. This family also contains the beta subunit of 5' AMP activated kinase.

Alpha amylase is classified as family 13 of the glycosyl hydrolases. The structure is an 8 stranded alpha/beta barrel containing the active site, interrupted by a ~70 a.a. calcium-binding domain protruding between beta strand 3 and alpha helix 3, and a carboxyl-terminal Greek key beta-barrel domain.

glycogen debranching protein (GlgX) hydrolyzes (1->6)-alpha-D-glucosidic branch linkages in glycogen, amylopectin, and their beta-limit dextrins

This family consists of the GlgX protein from the E. coli glycogen operon and probable equivalogs from other prokaryotic species. GlgX is not required for glycogen biosynthesis, but instead acts as a debranching enzyme for glycogen catabolism. This HMM distinguishes GlgX from pullanases and other related proteins that also operate on alpha-1,6-glycosidic linkages. In the wide band between the trusted and noise cutoffs are functionally similar enzymes, mostly from plants, that act similarly but usually are termed isoamylase.
