EF-hand motif found in 1-phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate phosphodiesterase gamma-1-like proteins
This family corresponds to a small group of uncharacterized 1-phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate phosphodiesterase gamma-1-like (PI-PLC-gamma1-like) proteins. Although their biological function remains unclear, they shows high sequence similarity with other phosphoinositide phospholipase C gamma proteins. They contain a core set of domains, including an N-terminal pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, four atypical EF-hand motifs, a PLC catalytic core, and a single C2 domain. The PLC catalytic core domain is a TIM barrel with two highly conserved regions (X and Y) split by a highly degenerate linker sequence. A second PH domain, which is split by two SH2 (Src homology 2) domains, and one SH3 (Src homology 3) domain, are present within this linker.
