| Primary Identifier | IPR017763 | Type | Family |
| Short Name | Cysteine_desulfurase_CsdE |
| description | This entry represents CsdE (formerly known as YgdK), the sulphur acceptor subunit of a cysteine desulfurase. This protein, found as a paralogue of SufE in Escherichia coli, Yersinia pestis, Photorhabdus luminescens and related species, works together and physically interacts with CsdA (a paralogue of SufS). CsdA has cysteine desulfurase activity that is enhanced by this protein, where Cys-61 (numbered as in E. coli) is a sulphur acceptor site. CsdA and CsdE, although involved in FeS cluster biosynthesis, are not encoded next to other like the paralogous Suf proteins. |
