| Primary Identifier | IPR023069 | Type | Family |
| Short Name | Chaperone_TorD |
| description | The TorD protein, after which this family is named, is involved in the maturation of the the trimethylamineN-oxide reductase TorA in Escherichia coli []. TorA is a molybdenum-containing enzyme which requires the the insertion of a bis(molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide) molybdenum (bis(MGD)Mo) cofactor in its catalytic site to be active and translocated to the periplasm. TorD acts as a chaperone, binding to apoTorA and promoting efficient incorporation of the cofactor into the protein. |
