Protein Family Models

This domain is found just after the C-terminal region of the HRDC domain (Pfam:PF00570) in 3'-5' exonuclease proteins (Pfam:PF01612). The domain is carried by species such as Streptomyces griseoaurantiacus and Streptomyces albulus. (from Pfam)

This domain is responsible for the 3'-5' exonuclease proofreading activity of E. coli DNA polymerase I (polI) and other enzymes, it catalyses the hydrolysis of unpaired or mismatched nucleotides. This domain consists of the amino-terminal half of the Klenow fragment in E. coli polI it is also found in the Werner syndrome helicase (WRN), focus forming activity 1 protein (FFA-1) and ribonuclease D (RNase D). Werner syndrome is a human genetic disorder causing premature aging; the WRN protein has helicase activity in the 3'-5' direction [4,5]. The FFA-1 protein is required for formation of a replication foci and also has helicase activity; it is a homologue of the WRN protein [3]. RNase D is a 3'-5' exonuclease involved in tRNA processing. Also found in this family is the autoantigen PM/Scl thought to be involved in polymyositis-scleroderma overlap syndrome. [1]. 3883192.

The HRDC (Helicase and RNase D C-terminal) domain has a putative role in nucleic acid binding. Mutations in the HRDC domain cause human disease. It is interesting to note that the RecQ helicase in Deinococcus radiodurans has three tandem HRDC domains [4]. [1]. 9397680.
