Protein Family Models

This ATP-grasp family is related to carbamoyl phosphate synthetase. These genes are found in the biosynthetic operon associated with the Ter stress response operon and are predicted to be involved in the biosynthesis of a ribo-nucleoside involved in stress response [1].

This family represents the C-terminal, catalytic domain of the D-alanine--D-alanine ligase enzyme EC:6.3.2.4. D-Alanine is one of the central molecules of the cross-linking step of peptidoglycan assembly. There are three enzymes involved in the D-alanine branch of peptidoglycan biosynthesis: the pyridoxal phosphate-dependent D-alanine racemase (Alr), the ATP-dependent D-alanine:D-alanine ligase (Ddl), and the ATP-dependent D-alanine:D-alanine-adding enzyme (MurF) [3].

Carbamoyl-phosphate synthase catalyses the ATP-dependent synthesis of carbamyl-phosphate from glutamine or ammonia and bicarbonate. This important enzyme initiates both the urea cycle and the biosynthesis of arginine and/or pyrimidines [2]. The carbamoyl-phosphate synthase (CPS) enzyme in prokaryotes is a heterodimer of a small and large chain. The small chain promotes the hydrolysis of glutamine to ammonia, which is used by the large chain to synthesise carbamoyl phosphate. See Pfam:PF00988. The small chain has a GATase domain in the carboxyl terminus. See Pfam:PF00117. The ATP binding domain (this one) has an ATP-grasp fold. [1]. 7915138.

This family does not contain all known ATP-grasp domain members. This family includes a diverse set of enzymes that possess ATP-dependent carboxylate-amine ligase activity. [1]. 9416615.

This domain composes the whole protein of methylglyoxal synthetase and the domain is also found in Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase (CPS) where it forms a regulatory domain that binds to the allosteric effector ornithine. This family also includes inosicase. The known structures in this family show a common phosphate binding site [1]. [1]. 10526357.
