pfam08924: Rv2525c_GlyHyd-like (This model is not part of the current CDD release)
Rv2525c-like, glycoside hydrolase-like domain
This domain is found in uncharacterised bacterial proteins, including the putative peptidoglycan hydrolase Rv2525c from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It has been proposed to function as a peptidoglycan hydrolase with glycosidase activity regarding structural studies showed that this domain has a typical TIM-barrel-like fold, characteristic of glycoside hydrolases. However, it displays esterase activity toward p-nitrophenyl esters of various acyl chain length in vitro.
