This domain is responsible for the high-affinity binding of calcium ions. This domain contains post-translational modifications of many glutamate residues by Vitamin K-dependent carboxylation to form gamma-carboxyglutamate (Gla).
Using reduced vitamin K, oxygen, and carbon dioxide, gamma-glutamyl carboxylase (VKGC) post-translationally modifies certain glutamates by adding carbon dioxide to the gamma position of those amino acids. In vertebrates, the modification of glutamat ...
Using reduced vitamin K, oxygen, and carbon dioxide, gamma-glutamyl carboxylase (VKGC) post-translationally modifies certain glutamates by adding carbon dioxide to the gamma position of those amino acids. In vertebrates, the modification of glutamate residues of target proteins is facilitated by an interaction between a propeptide present on target proteins and the gamma-glutamyl carboxylase [1]. This entry represents the lumenal domain found in animals and bacteria. This domain is associated with Pfam:PF05090 [1,2].
This entry represents the HTTM (for horizontally transferred transmembrane) domain found at the N-terminal in metazoan Vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxylase and in diverse domain architectures in bacterial proteins. This domain shows four transmembra ...
This entry represents the HTTM (for horizontally transferred transmembrane) domain found at the N-terminal in metazoan Vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxylase and in diverse domain architectures in bacterial proteins. This domain shows four transmembrane regions [2].
