Protein Domain : FeS assembly SUF system protein SufT, putative

Primary Identifier  IPR017776 Type  Family
Short Name  FeS_assembly_SufT_put
description  The function of these proteins is unknown but they are almost always encoded in operons for the SUF system of iron-sulphur cluster biosynthesis. In a few species the SUF system is present elsewhere on the chromosome. This group shares this property of association with the SUF system with a related group, . These groups of proteins both share a domain of unknown function which covers the whole protein in but only the C-terminal portion of proteins in this entry, which have an additional unique uncharacterised N-terminal domain. As these proteins are encoded immediately downstream of the cysteine desulphurase gene sufS in many contexts, they have been deignated SufT. Homologous proteins not covered by this entry or are found in operons associated with phenylacetic acid (or other ring-hydroxylating) degradation pathways.
