Publication Abstract from PubMedThe structure of LP2179, a member of the PF08866 (DUF1831) family, suggests a novel alpha+beta fold comprising two beta-sheets packed against a single helix. A remote structural similarity to two other uncharacterized protein families specific to the Bacillus genus (PF08868 and PF08968), as well as to prokaryotic S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylases, is consistent with a role in amino-acid metabolism. Genomic neighborhood analysis of LP2179 supports this functional assignment, which might also then be extended to PF08868 and PF08968. Structure of LP2179, the first representative of Pfam family PF08866, suggests a new fold with a role in amino-acid metabolism.,Bakolitsa C, Kumar A, Carlton D, Miller MD, Krishna SS, Abdubek P, Astakhova T, Axelrod HL, Chiu HJ, Clayton T, Deller MC, Duan L, Elsliger MA, Feuerhelm J, Grzechnik SK, Grant JC, Han GW, Jaroszewski L, Jin KK, Klock HE, Knuth MW, Kozbial P, Marciano D, McMullan D, Morse AT, Nigoghossian E, Okach L, Oommachen S, Paulsen J, Reyes R, Rife CL, Tien HJ, Trout CV, van den Bedem H, Weekes D, Xu Q, Hodgson KO, Wooley J, Deacon AM, Godzik A, Lesley SA, Wilson IA Acta Crystallogr Sect F Struct Biol Cryst Commun. 2010 Oct 1;66(Pt, 10):1205-10.
