Protein Family Models

This is a sensor domain that recognises O2, CO and NO (Matilla et. al., FEMS Microbiology Reviews, fuab043, 45, 2021, 1. https://doi.org/10.1093/femsre/fuab043). (from Pfam)

The PAS fold corresponds to the structural domain that has previously been defined as PAS and PAC motifs [4]. The PAS fold appears in archaea, eubacteria and eukarya. This domain is associated to signalling systems and works as a signal sensor domain. It recognises differently substituted aromatic hydrocarbons, oxygen, different dodecanoic acids, autoinducers, 3,5-dimethyl-pyrazin-2-ol and N-alanyl-aminoacetone (Matilla et. al., FEMS Microbiology Reviews, fuab043, 45, 2021, 1. https://doi.org/10.1093/femsre/fuab043).

CheR proteins are part of the chemotaxis signaling mechanism in bacteria. CheR methylates the chemotaxis receptor at specific glutamate residues. CheR is an S-adenosylmethionine- dependent methyltransferase. [1]. 9115443. Crystal structure of the chemotaxis receptor methyltransferase CheR suggests a conserved structural motif for binding S-adenosylmethionine. Djordjevic S, Stock AM;. Structure 1997;5:545-558.

CheR proteins are part of the chemotaxis signaling mechanism in bacteria. CheR methylates the chemotaxis receptor at specific glutamate residues. CheR is an S-adenosylmethionine- dependent methyltransferase - the C-terminal domain (this one) binds SAM. [1]. 9115443. Crystal structure of the chemotaxis receptor methyltransferase CheR suggests a conserved structural motif for binding S-adenosylmethionine. Djordjevic S, Stock AM;. Structure 1997;5:545-558.
