Putative catalytic domain of uncharacterized hypothetical proteins with one or two copies of the HKD motif
Putative catalytic domain of uncharacterized hypothetical proteins with similarity to phospholipase D (PLD, EC 3.1.4.4). PLD enzymes hydrolyze phospholipid phosphodiester bonds to yield phosphatidic acid and a free polar head group. They can also catalyze transphosphatidylation of phospholipids to acceptor alcohols. Members of this subfamily contain one or two copies of the HKD motif (H-x-K-x(4)-D, where x represents any amino acid residue) that characterizes the PLD superfamily.
