TIGR01877, CRISPR-associated_endoribonuclease_Cas6_1, CRISPR-associated endoribonuclease Cas6. CRISPR is a term for Clustered, Regularly Interspaced Short Palidromic Repeats. A number of protein families appear only in association with these repeats and are designated Cas (CRISPR-Associated) proteins. This broadly distributed, highly divergent Cas family is now characterized as an endoribonuclease that generates guide RNAs for host defense against phage and other invaders. The family contains a C-terminal motif GXGXXXXXGXG, where the each X between two Gly is hydrophobic and the spacer XXXXX contains (usually) one Arg or Lys. The seed alignment for the current version of this model has gappy columns removed. Members of this protein family are found associated with several different CRISPR/cas system subtypes, and consequently we designate this family Cas6.
cd09693, Cas5_I, CRISPR/Cas system-associated RAMP superfamily protein Cas5. CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) and associated Cas proteins comprise a system for heritable host defense by prokaryotic cells against phage and other foreign DNA; Cas5 is a RAMP superfamily protein; Subunit of the Cascade complex.

CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) and associated Cas proteins comprise a system for heritable host defense by prokaryotic cells against phage and other foreign DNA; Large proteins, some contain Zn-finger domain; signature gene for I-A subtype; also known as TM1802 family.
cd00548, NrfA-like, cytochrome c nitrite reductase and similar proteins. This family contains cytochrome c nitrite reductase (also known as cytochrome c552, or NrfA) and similar proteins. The pentaheme enzyme NrfA catalyzes the electron reduction of nitrite to ammonia in the nitrogen cycle. This enzyme can also transform nitrogen monoxide and hydroxylamine, two potential bound reaction intermediates, into ammonia. It is a homodimer, with each monomer containing four classical CXXCH type heme-binding sites along with an alternative CXXCK heme-binding motif, which is important for catalysis. This family also includes octaheme nitrite reductase (TvNiR) from the haloalkaliphilic bacterium Thioalkalivibrio paradoxus which catalyzes the reduction of nitrite and hydroxylamine to ammonia as well as the reduction of sulfite to sulfide.

PIN (PilT N terminus) domains of such ribonucleases as the toxins of prokaryotic toxin/antitoxin operons FitAB and VapBC, as well as, eukaryotic ribonucleases such as Smg6, ribosome assembly factor NOB1, exosome subunit Rrp44 endoribonuclease and rRNA-processing protein Fcf1, are included in VapC-like this family. Also included are the PIN domains of the Pyrobaculum aerophilum Pea0151 and Archaeoglobus fulgidus AF0591 proteins and other similar archaeal homologs. The PIN domain belongs to a large nuclease superfamily. The structural properties of the PIN domain indicate its active center, consisting of three highly conserved catalytic residues which coordinate metal ions; in some members, additional metal coordinating residues can be found while some others lack several of these key catalytic residues. The PIN active site is geometrically similar in the active center of structure-specific 5' nucleases, PIN-domain ribonucleases of eukaryotic rRNA editing proteins, and bacterial toxins of toxin-antitoxin (TA) operons.
TIGR03641, cas1_HMARI, CRISPR-associated endonuclease Cas1, subtype I-B/HMARI/TNEAP. The CRISPR-associated protein Cas1 is virtually universal to CRISPR systems. CRISPR, an acronym for Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats, is prokaryotic immunity system for foreign DNA, mostly from phage. CRISPR systems belong to different subtypes, distinguished by both nature of the repeats, the makeup of the cohort of associated Cas proteins, and by molecular phylogeny within the more universal Cas proteins such as this one. This model is of type EXCEPTION and provides more specific information than the EQUIVALOG model TIGR00287. It describes Cas1 subgroup that includes Cas1 proteins of the related HMARI and TNEAP subtypes of CRISPR/Cas system.

cd02966, TlpA_like_family, TlpA-like family; composed of TlpA, ResA, DsbE and similar proteins. TlpA, ResA and DsbE are bacterial protein disulfide reductases with important roles in cytochrome maturation. They are membrane-anchored proteins with a soluble TRX domain containing a CXXC motif located in the periplasm. The TRX domains of this family contain an insert, approximately 25 residues in length, which correspond to an extra alpha helix and a beta strand when compared with TRX. TlpA catalyzes an essential reaction in the biogenesis of cytochrome aa3, while ResA and DsbE are essential proteins in cytochrome c maturation. Also included in this family are proteins containing a TlpA-like TRX domain with domain architectures similar to E. coli DipZ protein, and the N-terminal TRX domain of PilB protein from Neisseria which acts as a disulfide reductase that can recylce methionine sulfoxide reductases.
pfam02661, Fic, Fic/DOC family. This family consists of the Fic (filamentation induced by cAMP) protein and doc (death on curing). The Fic protein is involved in cell division and is suggested to be involved in the synthesis of PAB or folate, indicating that the Fic protein and cAMP are involved in a regulatory mechanism of cell division via folate metabolism. This family contains a central conserved motif HPFXXGNG in most members. The exact molecular function of these proteins is uncertain. P1 lysogens of Escherichia coli carry the prophage as a stable low copy number plasmid. The frequency with which viable cells cured of prophage are produced is about 10(-5) per cell per generation. A significant part of this remarkable stability can be attributed to a plasmid-encoded mechanism that causes death of cells that have lost P1. In other words, the lysogenic cells appear to be addicted to the presence of the prophage. The plasmid withdrawal response depends on a gene named doc (death on curing) that is represented by this family. Doc induces a reversible growth arrest of E. coli cells by targetting the protein synthesis machinery. Doc hosts the C-terminal domain of its antitoxin partner Phd (prevents host death) through fold complementation, a domain that is intrinsically disordered in solution but that folds into an alpha-helix on binding to Doc.This domain forms complexes with Phd antitoxins containing pfam02604.
pfam05525, Branch_AA_trans, Branched-chain amino acid transport protein. This family consists of several bacterial branched-chain amino acid transport proteins which are responsible for the transport of leucine, isoleucine and valine via proton motive force.
cd11524, SYLF, The SYLF domain (also called DUF500), a novel lipid-binding module. The SYLF domain is named after SH3YL1, Ysc84p/Lsb4p, Lsb3p, and plant FYVE, which are proteins that contain it. It is also called DUF500 and is highly conserved from bacteria to mammals. Some members, such as SH3YL1, Ysc84p, and Lsb3p, which represent the best characterized members of the family, also contain an SH3 domain, while family members from plants and stramenopiles also contain a FYVE zinc finger domain. Other members only contain a stand-alone SYLF domain. The SYLF domain of SH3YL1 binds phosphoinositides with high affinity, while the N-terminal SYLF domains of both Ysc84p and Lsb3p have been shown to bind and bundle actin filaments, as well as bind liposomes with high affinity.
cd02808, GltS_FMN, Glutamate synthase (GltS) FMN-binding domain. GltS is a complex iron-sulfur flavoprotein that catalyzes the reductive synthesis of L-glutamate from 2-oxoglutarate and L-glutamine via intramolecular channelling of ammonia, a reaction in the plant, yeast and bacterial pathway for ammonia assimilation. It is a multifunctional enzyme that functions through three distinct active centers, carrying out L-glutamine hydrolysis, conversion of 2-oxoglutarate into L-glutamate, and electron uptake from an electron donor.
