Primary Identifier | IPR017514 | Type | Family |
Short Name | GcvH_Chlamydia |
description | The H protein (GcvH) of the glycine cleavage system shuttles the methylamine group of glycine from the P protein to the T protein. Most Chlamydia lack the P and T proteins, and have a single homologue of GcvH that appears deeply split from canonical GcvH in molecular phylogenetic trees. This protein family represents the Chlamydial GcvH homologue, which is always seen as part of a two-gene operon, downstream of a member of the uncharacterised protein family . The function of the proteins in this entry are unknown. |
