| Primary Identifier | IPR054857 | Type | Family |
| Short Name | cyc_nuc_deg_phdiest |
| description | This entry represents a family of cyclic nucleotide-degrading phosphodiesterases. These enzymes are involved in the hydrolysis of cyclic nucleotides, such as cAMP and cGMP, into their corresponding nucleoside monophosphates. Members of this family include uncharacterized proteins from various Mycobacterium species, such as Mycobacterium bovis (strain ATCC BAA-935 / AF2122/97), Mycobacterium tuberculosis (strains CDC 1551 / Oshkosh and ATCC 25618 / H37Rv), and Mycobacterium leprae (strain TN). These proteins share sequence similarity and are classified under the AtsA family. The precise biological roles of these proteins in Mycobacterium species remain to be fully elucidated. |
