IPR005251

Description

IPR005251 is a Methylthioribose-1-phosphate isomerase.

<p>This family contains proteins designated as 5-methylthioribose-1-phosphate isomerase (MTNA, [ec:5.3.1.23], [[cite:PUB00016716]]). It also contains putative translation initiation factor 2B subunit proteins.</p> <p>5-methylthioribose-1-phosphate isomerase (MTNA) participates in the methionine salvage pathway catalysing the isomerisation of 5-methylthioribose-1-phosphate to 5-methylthio ribulose-1-phosphate [[cite:PUB00016714]]. The methionine salvage pathway leads to the synthesis of methionine from methylthioadenosine, the end product of the spermidine and spermine anabolism in many species.</p> <p>The delineation of this family is based in part on a discussion and neighbour-joining phylogenetic study [[cite:PUB00004919], [cite:PUB00016925]], of archaeal and other proteins homologous to the alpha, beta, and delta subunits of eukaryotic initiation factor 2B (eIF-2B), a five-subunit molecule that catalyzes GTP recycling for eIF-2. The archaeal proteins are related to the common ancestor of eIF-2B alpha, beta, and delta rather then specifically to any one of them, and that designation of particular archaeal members as corresponding to eIF-2B alpha or eIF-2B delta is imprecise. It has been suggested that designating the archaeal proteins as translation initiation factors remains unproven.</p>
