Primary Identifier | IPR036086 | Type | Homologous_superfamily |
Short Name | ParB/Sulfiredoxin_sf |
description | Proteins containing this domain include Escherichia coli plasmid protein ParB and mammalian Sulfiredoxin-1. ParB is involved in chromosome partition. It localize to both poles of the predivisional cell following completion of DNA replication []. Sulfiredoxin-1 contributes to oxidative stress resistance by reducing cysteine-sulfinic acid formed under exposure to oxidants in the peroxiredoxins PRDX1, PRDX2, PRDX3 and PRDX4 [].The structure of ParB/Sulfiredoxin has a beta-α-β(2)-α-β-alpha fold with mixed beta sheet forming a partly open barrel. |
