TIGR01963, D-beta-hydroxybutyrate_dehydrogenase, 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase. This model represents a subfamily of the short chain dehydrogenases. Characterized members so far as 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenases and are found in species that accumulate ester polmers called polyhydroxyalkanoic acids (PHAs) under certain conditions. Several members of the family are from species not known to accumulate PHAs, including Oceanobacillus iheyensis and Bacillus subtilis. However, polymer formation is not required for there be a role for 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase; it may be members of this family have the same function in those species.
cd17325, MFS_MdtG_SLC18_like, bacterial MdtG-like and eukaryotic solute carrier 18 (SLC18) family of the Major Facilitator Superfamily of transporters. This family is composed of eukaryotic solute carrier 18 (SLC18) family transporters and related bacterial multidrug resistance (MDR) transporters including several proteins from Escherichia coli such as multidrug resistance protein MdtG, from Bacillus subtilis such as multidrug resistance proteins 1 (Bmr1) and 2 (Bmr2), and from Staphylococcus aureus such as quinolone resistance protein NorA. The family also includes Escherichia coli arabinose efflux transporters YfcJ and YhhS. MDR transporters are drug/H+ antiporters (DHA) that mediate the efflux of a variety of drugs and toxic compounds, and confer resistance to these compounds. The SLC18 transporter family includes vesicular monoamine transporters (VAT1 and VAT2), vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT), and SLC18B1, which is proposed to be a vesicular polyamine transporter (VPAT). The MdtG/SLC18 family belongs to the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) of membrane transport proteins, which are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement.
TIGR02428, 3-oxoadipate_CoA-transferase_subunit_B, 3-oxoacid CoA-transferase, B subunit. Various members of this family are characterized as the B subunits of succinyl-CoA:3-ketoacid-CoA transferase (EC 2.8.3.5), beta-ketoadipate:succinyl-CoA transferase (EC 2.8.3.6), acetyl-CoA:acetoacetate CoA transferase (EC 2.8.3.8), and butyrate-acetoacetate CoA-transferase (EC 2.8.3.9). This represents a very distinct clade with strong sequence conservation within the larger family defined by pfam01144. The A subunit represents a different clade in pfam01144.
cd10456, GIY-YIG_UPF0213, The GIY-YIG domain of uncharacterized protein family UPF0213 related to structure-specific endonuclease SLX1. This family contains a group of uncharacterized proteins found mainly in bacteria and several in dsDNA viruses. Although their function roles have not been recognized, these proteins show significant sequence similarities with the N-terminal GIY-YIG endonuclease domain of structure-specific endonuclease subunit SLX1, which binds another structure-specific endonuclease subunit SLX4 to form an active heterodimeric SLX1-SLX4 complex. This complex functions as a 5' flap endonuclease in yeast, and has also been identified as a Holliday junction resolvase in human.
cd17631, FACL_FadD13-like, fatty acyl-CoA synthetase, including FadD13. This family contains fatty acyl-CoA synthetases, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis acid-induced operon MymA encoding the fatty acyl-CoA synthetase FadD13 which is essential for virulence and intracellular growth of the pathogen. The fatty acyl-CoA synthetase activates lipids before entering into the metabolic pathways and is also involved in transmembrane lipid transport. However, unlike soluble fatty acyl-CoA synthetases, but like the mammalian integral-membrane very-long-chain acyl-CoA synthetases, FadD13 accepts lipid substrates up to the maximum length of C26, and this is facilitated by an extensive hydrophobic tunnel from the active site to a positively charged patch. Also included is feruloyl-CoA synthetase (Fcs) in Rhodococcus strains where it is involved in biotechnological vanillin production from eugenol and ferulic acid via a non-beta-oxidative pathway.
cd05241, 3b-HSD-like_SDR_e, 3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (3b-HSD)-like, extended (e) SDRs. Extended SDR family domains belonging to this subgroup have the characteristic active site tetrad and a fairly well-conserved NAD(P)-binding motif. 3b-HSD catalyzes the NAD-dependent conversion of various steroids, such as pregnenolone to progesterone, or androstenediol to testosterone. This subgroup includes an unusual bifunctional 3b-HSD/C-4 decarboxylase from Arabidopsis thaliana, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae ERG26, a 3b-HSD/C-4 decarboxylase, involved in the synthesis of ergosterol, the major sterol of yeast. It also includes human 3 beta-HSD/HSD3B1 and C(27) 3beta-HSD/ [3beta-hydroxy-delta(5)-C(27)-steroid oxidoreductase; HSD3B7]. C(27) 3beta-HSD/HSD3B7 is a membrane-bound enzyme of the endoplasmic reticulum, that catalyzes the isomerization and oxidation of 7alpha-hydroxylated sterol intermediates, an early step in bile acid biosynthesis. Mutations in the human NSDHL (NAD(P)H steroid dehydrogenase-like protein) cause CHILD syndrome (congenital hemidysplasia with ichthyosiform nevus and limb defects), an X-linked dominant, male-lethal trait. Mutations in the human gene encoding C(27) 3beta-HSD underlie a rare autosomal recessive form of neonatal cholestasis. Extended SDRs are distinct from classical SDRs. In addition to the Rossmann fold (alpha/beta folding pattern with a central beta-sheet) core region typical of all SDRs, extended SDRs have a less conserved C-terminal extension of approximately 100 amino acids. Extended SDRs are a diverse collection of proteins, and include isomerases, epimerases, oxidoreductases, and lyases; they typically have a TGXXGXXG cofactor binding motif. SDRs are a functionally diverse family of oxidoreductases that have a single domain with a structurally conserved Rossmann fold, an NAD(P)(H)-binding region, and a structurally diverse C-terminal region. Sequence identity between different SDR enzymes is typically in the 15-30% range; they catalyze a wide range of activities including the metabolism of steroids, cofactors, carbohydrates, lipids, aromatic compounds, and amino acids, and act in redox sensing. Classical SDRs have an TGXXX[AG]XG cofactor binding motif and a YXXXK active site motif, with the Tyr residue of the active site motif serving as a critical catalytic residue (Tyr-151, human 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase numbering). In addition to the Tyr and Lys, there is often an upstream Ser and/or an Asn, contributing to the active site; while substrate binding is in the C-terminal region, which determines specificity. The standard reaction mechanism is a 4-pro-S hydride transfer and proton relay involving the conserved Tyr and Lys, a water molecule stabilized by Asn, and nicotinamide. Atypical SDRs generally lack the catalytic residues characteristic of the SDRs, and their glycine-rich NAD(P)-binding motif is often different from the forms normally seen in classical or extended SDRs. Complex (multidomain) SDRs such as ketoreductase domains of fatty acid sythase have a GGXGXXG NAD(P)-binding motif and an altered active site motif (YXXXN). Fungal type ketoacyl reductases have a TGXXXGX(1-2)G NAD(P)-binding motif.
cd06582, TM_PBP1_LivH_like, Transmembrane subunit (TM) of Escherichia coli LivH and related proteins. LivH is one of two TMs of the E. coli LIV-1/LS transporter, a Periplasmic Binding Protein (PBP)-dependent ATP-Binding Cassette (ABC) transporter involved in the uptake of branched-chain amino acids (AAs). These types of transporters generally bind type 1 PBPs. PBP-dependent ABC transporters consist of a PBP, two TMs, and two cytoplasmic ABCs, and are mainly involved in importing solutes from the environment. The solute is captured by the PBP, which delivers it to a gated translocation pathway formed by the two TMs. The two ABCs bind and hydrolyze ATP and drive the transport reaction. E. coli LivH forms a heterodimer with another TM, LivM, to generate the transmembrane pore. LivM is not included in this subgroup. The LIV-1/LS transporter is comprised of two TMs (LivM and LivH), two ABCs (LivG and LivF), and one of two alternative PBPs, LivJ (LIV-BP) or LivK (LS-BP). In addition to transporting branched-chain AAs including leucine, isoleucine and valine, the E. coli LIV-1/LS transporter is involved in the uptake of the aromatic AA, phenylalanine.

pfam07366, SnoaL, SnoaL-like polyketide cyclase. This family includes SnoaL a polyketide cyclase involved in nogalamycin biosynthesis. This family was formerly known as DUF1486. The proteins in this family adopt a distorted alpha-beta barrel fold. Structural data together with site-directed mutagenesis experiments have shown that SnoaL has a different mechanism to that of the classical aldolase for catalyzing intramolecular aldol condensation.
cd12822, TmCorA-like, Thermotoga maritima CorA-like family. This family belongs to the MIT superfamily of essential membrane proteins involved in transporting divalent cations (uptake or efflux) across membranes. Members of the Thermotoga maritima CorA_like family are found in all three kingdoms of life. It is a functionally diverse family, in addition to the CorA Co2+ transporter from the hyperthermophilic Thermotoga maritima, it includes three Saccharomyces cerevisiae members: two plasma membrane proteins, the Mg2+ transporter Alr1p/Swc3p and the putative Mg2+ transporter, Alr2p, and the vacuole membrane protein Mnr2p, a putative Mg2+ transporter. Thermotoga maritima CorA forms funnel-shaped homopentamers, the tip of the funnel is formed from two C-terminal transmembrane (TM) helices from each monomer, and the large opening of the funnel from the N-terminal cytoplasmic domains. The GMN signature motif of the MIT superfamily occurs just after TM1, mutation within this motif is known to abolish Mg2+ transport by Alr1p. Natural variants in this signature sequence may be associated with the transport of different divalent cations. The functional diversity of the MIT superfamily may also be due to minor structural differences regulating gating, substrate selection, and transport.
cd01948, EAL, EAL domain. This domain is found in diverse bacterial signaling proteins. It is called EAL after its conserved residues and is also known as domain of unknown function 2 (DUF2). The EAL domain has been shown to stimulate degradation of a second messenger, cyclic di-GMP, and is a good candidate for a diguanylate phosphodiesterase function. Together with the GGDEF domain, EAL might be involved in regulating cell surface adhesiveness in bacteria.
