IPR036581

Description

IPR036581 is a Cyanate lyase, C-terminal domain superfamily.

<p>Some bacteria can overcome the toxicity of environmental cyanate by hydrolysis of cyanate. This reaction is catalyzed by cyanate lyase (also known as cyanase) [[cite:PUB00008197]]. Cyanate lyase is found in bacteria and plants and catalyzes the reaction of cyanate with bicarbonate to produce ammonia and carbon dioxide.</p> <p>The cyanate lyase monomer is composed of two domains. The N-terminal domain shows structural similarity to the DNA-binding α-helix bundle motif. The C-terminal domain has an 'open fold' with no structural homology to other proteins. The dimer structure reveals the C-terminal domains to be intertwined, and the decamer is formed by a pentamer of these dimers. The active site of the enzyme is located between dimers and is comprised of residues from four adjacent subunits of the homodecamer [[cite:PUB00008198]].</p>
