26-231 5.41e-73

Succinylglutamate desuccinylase/aspartoacylase; uncharacterized; A functionally uncharacterized subgroup of the Succinylglutamate desuccinylase (ASTE)/aspartoacylase (ASPA) subfamily which is part of the M14 family of metallocarboxypeptidases. ASTE catalyzes the fifth and last step in arginine catabolism by the arginine succinyltransferase pathway, and aspartoacylase (ASPA, also known as aminoacylase 2, and ACY-2; EC:3.5.1.15) cleaves N-acetyl L-aspartic acid (NAA) into aspartate and acetate. NAA is abundant in the brain, and hydrolysis of NAA by ASPA may help maintain white matter. ASPA is an NAA scavenger in other tissues. Mutations in the gene encoding ASPA cause Canavan disease (CD), a fatal progressive neurodegenerative disorder involving dysmyelination and spongiform degeneration of white matter in children. This enzyme binds zinc which is necessary for activity. Measurement of elevated NAA levels in urine is used in the diagnosis of CD.

22-311 3.67e-17

Succinylglutamate desuccinylase / Aspartoacylase family; This family includes Succinylglutamate desuccinylase EC:3.1.-.- that catalyzes the fifth and last step in arginine catabolism by the arginine succinyltransferase pathway. The family also include aspartoacylase EC:3.5.1.15 which cleaves acylaspartate into a fatty acid and aspartate. Mutations in Swiss:P45381 lead to Canavan disease. This family is probably structurally related to pfam00246 (Bateman A pers. obs.).

Peptidase M14 Succinylglutamate desuccinylase (ASTE)/aspartoacylase (ASPA)-like; uncharacterized subgroup; A functionally uncharacterized subgroup of the Succinylglutamate desuccinylase (ASTE)/aspartoacylase (ASPA) subfamily which is part of the M14 family of metallocarboxypeptidases. ASTE catalyzes the fifth and last step in arginine catabolism by the arginine succinyltransferase pathway, and aspartoacylase (ASPA, also known as aminoacylase 2, and ACY-2; EC:3.5.1.15) cleaves N-acetyl L-aspartic acid (NAA) into aspartate and acetate. NAA is abundant in the brain, and hydrolysis of NAA by ASPA may help maintain white matter. ASPA is an NAA scavenger in other tissues. Mutations in the gene encoding ASPA cause Canavan disease (CD), a fatal progressive neurodegenerative disorder involving dysmyelination and spongiform degeneration of white matter in children. This enzyme binds zinc which is necessary for activity. Measurement of elevated NAA levels in urine is used in the diagnosis of CD.

16-119 1.92e-08

Peptidase M14 carboxypeptidase Csd4 and similar proteins; This family includes peptidase M14 carboxypeptidase Csd4 from H. pylori which has been shown to be DL-carboxypeptidase with a modified zinc binding site containing a glutamine residue in place of a conserved histidine. It is an archetype of a new carboxypeptidase subfamily with a domain arrangement that differs from this family of peptide-cleaving enzymes. Csd4 plays a role in trimming uncrosslinked peptidoglycan peptide chains by cleaving the amide bond between meso-diaminopimelate and iso-D-glutamic acid in truncated peptidoglycan side chains. It acts as a cell shape determinant, similar to Campylobacter jejuni Pgp1. The M14 family of metallocarboxypeptidases (MCPs), also known as funnelins, are zinc-binding carboxypeptidases (CPs) which hydrolyze single, C-terminal amino acids from polypeptide chains, and have a recognition site for the free C-terminal carboxyl group, which is a key determinant of specificity. Two major subfamilies of the M14 family, defined based on sequence and structural homology, are the A/B and N/E subfamilies. Enzymes belonging to the A/B subfamily are normally synthesized as inactive precursors containing preceding signal peptide, followed by an N-terminal pro-region linked to the enzyme; these proenzymes are called procarboxypeptidases. The A/B enzymes can be further divided based on their substrate specificity; Carboxypeptidase A-like (CPA-like) enzymes favor hydrophobic residues while carboxypeptidase B-like (CPB-like) enzymes only cleave the basic residues lysine or arginine. The A forms have slightly different specificities, with Carboxypeptidase A1 (CPA1) preferring aliphatic and small aromatic residues, and CPA2 preferring the bulky aromatic side chains. Enzymes belonging to the N/E subfamily enzymes are not produced as inactive precursors and instead rely on their substrate specificity and subcellular compartmentalization to prevent inappropriate cleavage. They contain an extra C-terminal transthyretin-like domain, thought to be involved in folding or formation of oligomers. MCPs can also be classified based on their involvement in specific physiological processes; the pancreatic MCPs participate only in alimentary digestion and include carboxypeptidase A and B (A/B subfamily), while others, namely regulatory MCPs or the N/E subfamily, are involved in more selective reactions, mainly in non-digestive tissues and fluids, acting on blood coagulation/fibrinolysis, inflammation and local anaphylaxis, pro-hormone and neuropeptide processing, cellular response and others. Another MCP subfamily, is that of succinylglutamate desuccinylase /aspartoacylase, which hydrolyzes N-acetyl-L-aspartate (NAA), and deficiency in which is the established cause of Canavan disease. Another subfamily (referred to as subfamily C) includes an exceptional type of activity in the MCP family, that of dipeptidyl-peptidase activity of gamma-glutamyl-(L)-meso-diaminopimelate peptidase I which is involved in bacterial cell wall metabolism.

Peptidase M14-like domain similar to rapid encystment phenotype 34 (REP34); This family includes Francisella tularensis protein rapid encystment phenotype 34 (REP34) which is a zinc-containing monomeric protein demonstrating carboxypeptidase B-like activity. REP34 possesses a novel topology with its substrate binding pocket deviating from the canonical M14 peptidases with a possible catalytic role for a conserved tyrosine and distinct S1' recognition site. Thus, REP34, identified as an active carboxypeptidase and a potential key F. tularensis effector protein, may help elucidate a mechanistic understanding of F. tularensis infection of phagocytic cells. A functionally uncharacterized subgroup of the M14 family of metallocarboxypeptidases (MCPs).

The A/B enzymes can be further divided based on their substrate specificity; Carboxypeptidase A-like (CPA-like) enzymes favor hydrophobic residues while carboxypeptidase B-like (CPB-like) enzymes only cleave the basic residues lysine or arginine. The A forms have slightly different specificities, with Carboxypeptidase A1 (CPA1) preferring aliphatic and small aromatic residues, and CPA2 preferring the bulky aromatic side chains. Enzymes belonging to the N/E subfamily enzymes are not produced as inactive precursors and instead rely on their substrate specificity and subcellular compartmentalization to prevent inappropriate cleavage. They contain an extra C-terminal transthyretin-like domain, thought to be involved in folding or formation of oligomers. MCPs can also be classified based on their involvement in specific physiological processes; the pancreatic MCPs participate only in alimentary digestion and include carboxypeptidase A and B (A/B subfamily), while others, namely regulatory MCPs or the N/E subfamily, are involved in more selective reactions, mainly in non-digestive tissues and fluids, acting on blood coagulation/fibrinolysis, inflammation and local anaphylaxis, pro-hormone and neuropeptide processing, cellular response and others. Another MCP subfamily, is that of succinylglutamate desuccinylase /aspartoacylase, which hydrolyzes N-acetyl-L-aspartate (NAA), and deficiency in which is the established cause of Canavan disease. Another subfamily (referred to as subfamily C) includes an exceptional type of activity in the MCP family, that of dipeptidyl-peptidase activity of gamma-glutamyl-(L)-meso-diaminopimelate peptidase I which is involved in bacterial cell wall metabolism.

Peptidase M14 Succinylglutamate desuccinylase (ASTE)/aspartoacylase (ASPA)-like; uncharacterized subgroup; A functionally uncharacterized subgroup of the Succinylglutamate desuccinylase (ASTE)/aspartoacylase (ASPA) subfamily which is part of the M14 family of metallocarboxypeptidases. ASTE catalyzes the fifth and last step in arginine catabolism by the arginine succinyltransferase pathway, and aspartoacylase (ASPA, also known as aminoacylase 2, and ACY-2; EC:3.5.1.15) cleaves N-acetyl L-aspartic acid (NAA) into aspartate and acetate. NAA is abundant in the brain, and hydrolysis of NAA by ASPA may help maintain white matter. ASPA is an NAA scavenger in other tissues. Mutations in the gene encoding ASPA cause Canavan disease (CD), a fatal progressive neurodegenerative disorder involving dysmyelination and spongiform degeneration of white matter in children. This enzyme binds zinc which is necessary for activity. Measurement of elevated NAA levels in urine is used in the diagnosis of CD.

Peptidase M14-like domain; uncharacterized subgroup; Peptidase M14-like domain of a functionally uncharacterized subgroup of the M14 family of metallocarboxypeptidases (MCPs). The M14 family are zinc-binding carboxypeptidases (CPs) which hydrolyze single, C-terminal amino acids from polypeptide chains, and have a recognition site for the free C-terminal carboxyl group, which is a key determinant of specificity. Two major subfamilies of the M14 family, defined based on sequence and structural homology, are the A/B and N/E subfamilies. Enzymes belonging to the A/B subfamily are normally synthesized as inactive precursors containing preceding signal peptide, followed by an N-terminal pro-region linked to the enzyme; these proenzymes are called procarboxypeptidases.

Peptidase M14 Succinylglutamate desuccinylase (ASTE)/aspartoacylase (ASPA)-like subfamily; subgroup includes Pseudomonas aeruginosa AotO; An uncharacterized subgroup of the Succinylglutamate desuccinylase (ASTE)/aspartoacylase (ASPA) subfamily which is part of the the M14 family of metallocarboxypeptidases. This subgroup includes Pseudomonas aeruginosa AotO and related proteins. ASTE catalyzes the fifth and last step in arginine catabolism by the arginine succinyltransferase pathway, and aspartoacylase (ASPA, also known as aminoacylase 2, and ACY-2; EC:3.5.1.15) cleaves N-acetyl L-aspartic acid (NAA) into aspartate and acetate.

This enzyme binds zinc which is necessary for activity. Measurement of elevated NAA levels in urine is used in the diagnosis of CD. The gene encoding P. aeruginosa AotO was characterized as part of an operon encoding an arginine and ornithine transport system, however it is not essential for arginine and ornithine uptake.
