Molecular Tour
Thy1 is an enzyme which catalyze the reaction to produce thymidine monophosphate from deoxyuridine monophosphate. The Thy1 from Thermus thermophilus was found , TtThy1, have an extra domain with 48 amino acids at the C terminal. BLAST search showed that the CTD domain exists only for Thy1 from Thermus, Marinithermus, Oceanithermus and Truepera. The structure of TtThy1 was determined by X-ray crystallography. is similar to the known structures and the (Alpha Helices,

Loops ,
Turns). . Conserved residues are in red.
