DegV family protein
The structure of this protein revealed a bound fatty-acid molecule in a pocket between the two protein domains. The structure indicates that this family has the molecular function of fatty-acid binding and may play a role in the cellular functions of fatty acid transport or metabolism [1]. [1]. 12577257. Crystal structure of a hypothetical protein, TM841 of Thermotoga maritima, reveals its function as a fatty acid-binding protein. Schulze-Gahmen U, Pelaschier J, Yokota H, Kim R, Kim SH;. Proteins 2003;50:526-530. (from Pfam)
DegV family protein similar to Bacillus subtilis DegV, which binds long-chain fatty acids such as palmitate, and may play a role in lipid transport or fatty acid metabolism
DegV family EDD domain-containing protein
This family of proteins is related to DegV of Bacillus subtilis and includes paralogous sets in several species (B. subtilis, Deinococcus radiodurans, Mycoplasma pneumoniae) that are closer in percent identity to each than to most homologs from other species. This suggests both recent paralogy and diversity of function. DegV itself is encoded immediately downstream of DegU, a transcriptional regulator of degradation, but is itself uncharacterized. Crystallography suggested a lipid-binding site, while comparison of the crystal structure to dihydroxyacetone kinase and to a mannose transporter EIIA domain suggests a conserved domain, EDD, with phosphotransferase activity.
