IPR030393

Description

IPR030393 is a EngB-type guanine nucleotide-binding (G) domain.

<p>This entry represents the EngB-type G domain.</p> <p>The P-loop guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) control a multitude of biological processes, ranging from cell division, cell cycling, and signal transduction, to ribosome assembly and protein synthesis. GTPases exert their control by interchanging between an inactive GDP-bound state and an active GTP-bound state, thereby acting as molecular switches. The common denominator of GTPases is the highly conserved guanine nucleotide-binding (G) domain that is responsible for binding and hydrolysis of guanine nucleotides.</p> <p>Within the translation factor-related (TRAFAC) class of P-loop GTPases, the EngB-type is widespread, but not ubiquitous in all three superkingdoms (missing, for example, from the Crenarchaeota, Caenorhabditis, and Drosophila). Proteins of the EngB-type GTPase family are involved in the biogenesis of ribosomes and are essential for the survival of a wide range of bacteria [[cite:PUB00013952], [cite:PUB00031206], [cite:PUB00056964]].</p> <p>The EngB-type GTPase is comprised of a central β-sheet flanked by alpha- helices, in which semi-conserved residues involved in nucleotide binding are located in five motifs, called G1-G5. The G1 region (GxxxxGKS) forms the P-loop that is responsible for binding the phosphate groups of the guanine nucleotide. The G2 region corresponds to the switch I loop, which contains the consensus motif PGxT. The invariant threonine residue is responsible for binding a magnesium ion required for catalysis. The G3 region corresponds to the Walker B motif (DxxG), which forms part of switch II. The G4 (TKxD) and G5 motifs are involved in interactions with the guanine moiety of the substrate [[cite:PUB00031206], [cite:PUB00056964]].</p>
