This family of enzymes are a a large metal dependent hydrolase superfamily [1]. The family includes Adenine deaminase EC:3.5.4.2 that hydrolyses adenine to form hypoxanthine and ammonia. Adenine deaminases reaction is important for adenine utilisation as a purine and also as a nitrogen source [2]. This family also includes dihydroorotase and N-acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate deacetylases, EC:3.5.1.25 These enzymes catalyse the reaction N-acetyl-D-glucosamine 6-phosphate + H2O <=> D-glucosamine 6-phosphate + acetate. This family includes the catalytic domain of urease alpha subunit [3]. Dihydroorotases (EC:3.5.2.3) are also included [4-5].
This small domain is found at the N-terminal end of Formimidoylglutamate deiminase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa (also known as N-formimino-L-Glutamate Iminohydrolase, HutF) and similar proteins predominantly found in proteobacteria. HutF catalyzes he ...
This small domain is found at the N-terminal end of Formimidoylglutamate deiminase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa (also known as N-formimino-L-Glutamate Iminohydrolase, HutF) and similar proteins predominantly found in proteobacteria. HutF catalyzes he deamination of N-formimino-l-glutamate to N-formyl-l-glutamate and ammonia in the histidine degradation pathway [1]. The domain represented by this entry folds into an open beta-barrel which is completed by two strands located at the C terminus of the protein.
