The name of this superfamily has been modified since the most recent official CATH+ release (v4_2_0). At the point of the last release, this superfamily was named:

"
P-loop containing nucleotide triphosphate hydrolases

FunFam 635024: Ras family small GTPase

There are 3 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase. [EC: 3.1.4.12]
Sphingomyelin + H(2)O = N-acylsphingosine + phosphocholine.
  • Has very little activity on phosphatidylcholine.
2 B7QCS6 B7QDB4
Nucleoside-triphosphate phosphatase. [EC: 3.6.1.15]
NTP + H(2)O = NDP + phosphate.
  • The enzyme is found in eukaryotes and thermophilic bacteria, but appears to be absent from mesophilic bacteria.
  • Also hydrolyzes nucleoside diphosphates, thiamine diphosphate and FAD.
  • The enzyme from the plant Pisum sativum (garden pea) is regulated by calmodulin.
2 A0A161MHG8 A0A170VD97
ATP-dependent NAD(P)H-hydrate dehydratase. [EC: 4.2.1.93]
(1) ATP + (6S)-6-beta-hydroxy-1,4,5,6-tetrahydronicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide = ADP + phosphate + NADH. (2) ATP + (6S)-6-beta-hydroxy-1,4,5,6-tetrahydronicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate = ADP + phosphate + NADPH.
  • Acts equally well on hydrated NADH and hydrated NADPH.
  • NAD(P)H spontaneously hydrates to both the (6S)- and (6R)- isomers, and these are interconverted by EC 5.1.99.6, to a 60:40 ratio.
  • Hence EC 4.2.1.93 together with EC 5.1.99.6 can restore the mixture of hydrates into NAD(P)H.
  • The enzyme from eukaryotes has no activity with ADP, contrary to the enzyme from bacteria (cf. EC 4.2.1.136).
