Aquifex aeolicus AQ1575 and related proteins, metallophosphatase domain This family includes bacterial and archeal proteins homologous to AQ1575, an uncharacterized Aquifex aeolicus protein. AQ1575 may play an accessory role in DNA repair, based on the close proximity of its gene to Holliday junction resolvasome genes. The domain present in members of this family belongs to the metallophosphatase (MPP) superfamily. MPPs are functionally diverse, but all share a conserved domain with an active site consisting of two metal ions (usually manganese, iron, or zinc) coordinated with octahedral geometry by a cage of histidine, aspartate, and asparagine residues. The MPP superfamily includes: Mre11/SbcD-like exonucleases, Dbr1-like RNA lariat debranching enzymes, YfcE-like phosphodiesterases, purple acid phosphatases (PAPs), YbbF-like UDP-2,3-diacylglucosamine hydrolases, and acid sphingomyelinases (ASMases). The conserved domain is a double beta-sheet sandwich with a di-metal active site made up of residues located at the C-terminal side of the sheets. This domain is thought to allow for productive metal coordination. |
