IPR030394

Description

IPR030394 is a HflX-type guanine nucleotide-binding (G) domain.

<p>This entry represents the HflX-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 [[cite:PUB00013952], [cite:PUB00056841], [cite:PUB00056762]].</p> <p>Within the translation factor-related (TRAFAC) class of P-loop GTPases, the HflX-type is a widely distributed family of GTPases that interact with the large ribosomal subunit. The broad phylogenetic distribution pattern of HflX GTPases in Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukaryotes (including human) suggests a basic cellular function for this protein family.</p> <p>The HflX-type G domain is composed of six β-strands and five α-helices [[cite:PUB00056841]]. It consists of the following conserved sequence motifs: the G1 motif (or P-loop), consensus GX4GK(S/T), which is responsible for interacting with the alpha and beta-phosphates of nucleotide di- and triphosphates; the G2 variable effector loop (DXnT); the G3 motif (DX2G), which interacts with the gamma-phosphate of nucleotide triphosphates; and the G4 motif (NKXD), which conveys specificity for guanine nucleotides through hydrogen bonding to the base [[cite:PUB00056762]].</p>
