Crystal structure of tm0922, a fusion of a domain of unknown function and ADP/ATP-dependent NAD(P)H-hydrate dehydratase from Thermotoga maritima soaked with NAD.
Hydration of NAD(P)H to NAD(P)HX, which inhibits several dehydrogenases, is corrected by an ATP-dependent dehydratase and an epimerase. The ATP-dependent dehydratase has been identified as the product of the vertebrate Carkd (carbohydrate kinase do ...
Hydration of NAD(P)H to NAD(P)HX, which inhibits several dehydrogenases, is corrected by an ATP-dependent dehydratase and an epimerase. The ATP-dependent dehydratase has been identified as the product of the vertebrate Carkd (carbohydrate kinase domain) gene [1, 2]. Variants of this enzyme leads to deficient NADHX repair mitochondrial dysfunction in humans, associated with a lethal neurometabolic disorder in early childhood [2]. In E. coli, it is found as the C-terminal domain of a bifunctional enzyme (YjeF) that also includes the epimerase and uses ADP instead of ATP [3]. These enzymes are widespread in eukaryotes, prokaryotes, and archaea.
YjeF-N domain is a novel version of the Rossmann fold with a set of catalytic residues and structural features that are different from the conventional dehydrogenases [1]. YjeF-N domain is fused to Ribokinases in bacteria (YjeF), where they may be ...
YjeF-N domain is a novel version of the Rossmann fold with a set of catalytic residues and structural features that are different from the conventional dehydrogenases [1]. YjeF-N domain is fused to Ribokinases in bacteria (YjeF), where they may be phosphatases, and to divergent Sm and the FDF domain in eukaryotes (Dcp3p and FLJ21128) [1], where they may be involved in decapping and catalyze hydrolytic RNA-processing reactions [1].
