FunFam 17: Type 1 glutamine amidotransferase

There are 1 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.

Protein deglycase. [EC: 3.5.1.124]
(1) An N(omega)-(1-hydroxy-2-oxopropyl)-[protein]-L-arginine + H(2)O = a [protein]-L-arginine + lactate. (2) An N(6)-(1-hydroxy-2-oxopropyl)-[protein]-L-lysine + H(2)O = a [protein]-L-lysine + lactate. (3) An S-(1-hydroxy-2-oxopropyl)-[protein]-L-cysteine + H(2)O = a [protein]-L-cysteine + lactate.
  • The enzyme, previously thought to be a glyoxalase, acts on glycated L-arginine, L-lysine, and L-cysteine residues within proteins that have been attacked and modified by glyoxal or 2-oxopropanal.
  • The attack forms hemithioacetal in the case of cysteines and aminocarbinols in the case of arginines and lysines.
  • The enzyme repairs the amino acids, releasing glycolate or lactate (70-80% (S)-lactate and 20-30% (R)-lactate), depending on whether the attacking agent was glyoxal or 2-oxopropanal, respectively.
