Nucleoside Triphosphate Pyrophosphohydrolase (EC 3.6.1.8) MazG-like domain found in a group of uncharacterized proteins from bacteria and archaea
The family corresponds to a group of uncharacterized hypothetical proteins from bacteria and archaea, showing a high sequence similarity to the dimeric 2-deoxyuridine 5'-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTP pyrophosphatase or dUTPase) and NTP-PPase MazG proteins. However, unlike typical tandem-domain MazG proteins, members in this family consist of a single MazG-like domain that contains a well conserved divalent ion-binding motif EXX[E/D].
