This coiled-coil (CC) domain is found at the N-terminal of Peptidoglycan hydrolase PcsB from Streptococcus pneumoniae (Swiss:Q8DMY4) and similar bacterial proteins. PcsB forms a dimer, and the CC domain as a pair of molecular tweezers locking the catalytic domain of each dimeric partner in an inactive configuration [1].
This domain corresponds to an amidase function. Many of these proteins are involved in cell wall metabolism of bacteria. This domain is found at the N-terminus of Swiss:P43675, where it functions as a glutathionylspermidine amidase EC:3.5.1.78 [1]. ...
This domain corresponds to an amidase function. Many of these proteins are involved in cell wall metabolism of bacteria. This domain is found at the N-terminus of Swiss:P43675, where it functions as a glutathionylspermidine amidase EC:3.5.1.78 [1]. This domain is found to be the catalytic domain of PlyCA [4]. CHAP is the amidase domain of bifunctional Escherichia coli glutathionylspermidine synthetase/amidase, and it catalyses the hydrolysis of Gsp (glutathionylspermidine) into glutathione and spermidine [5].
