Description: This family includes 3'-5' exoribonucleases. Ribonuclease PH contains a single copy of this domain, and removes nucleotide residues following the -CCA terminus of tRNA. Polyribonucleotide nucleotidyltransferase (PNPase) contains two tandem copies of the domain. PNPase is involved in mRNA degradation in a 3'-5' direction. The exosome is a 3'-5' exoribonuclease complex that is required for 3' processing of the 5.8S rRNA. Three of its five protein components, Swiss:P46948 Swiss:Q12277 and Swiss:P25359 contain a copy of this domain [1]. Swiss:Q10205, a hypothetical protein from S. pombe appears to belong to an uncharacterised subfamily. This subfamily is found in both eukaryotes and archaebacteria.

Description: Mnaimneh et al [1] identified Sec39p as a protein involved in ER-Golgi transport in a large scale promoter shut down analysis of essential yeast genes. Kraynack et al. (2005) [2] showed that Sec39p (Dsl3p) is required for Golgi-ER retrograde transport and is part of a very stable protein complex that also includes Dsl1p (in mammals ZW10), Tip20p (Rint-1) and the ER localized Q-SNARE proteins Ufe1p (syntaxin-18), Sec20p and Use1p. This was confirmed in a genome-wide analysis of protein complexes by Gavin et al (2006) [3].

Description: The PUA domain named after Pseudouridine synthase and Archaeosine transglycosylase, was detected in archaeal and eukaryotic pseudouridine synthases, archaeal archaeosine synthases, a family of predicted ATPases that may be involved in RNA modification, a family of predicted archaeal and bacterial rRNA methylases. Additionally, the PUA domain was detected in a family of eukaryotic proteins that also contain a domain homologous to the translation initiation factor eIF1/SUI1; these proteins may comprise a novel type of translation factors. Unexpectedly, the PUA domain was detected also in bacterial and yeast glutamate kinases; this is compatible with the demonstrated role of these enzymes in the regulation of the expression of other genes [1]. It is predicted that the PUA domain is an RNA binding domain.

It is essential for pre-mRNA splicing that functions in spliceosome assembly within the mature U2 snRNP (small ribonucleoprotein particle). This domain has two conserved sequence motifs: PIP and CEICG.

Description: Unconventional myosins, ie those that are not found in muscle, have the common, classical-type head domain, sometimes a neck with the IQ calmodulin-binding motifs, and then non-standard tails. These tails determine the subcellular localisation of the unconventional myosins and also help determine their individual functions. The family carries several different unconventional myosins, eg. Myo1f is expressed mainly in immune cells as well as in the inner ear where it can be associated with deafness, Myo1d has a lipid-binding module in their tail and is implicated in endosome vesicle recycling in epithelial cells. Myo1a, b, c and g from various eukaryotes are also found in this family.

Spt5 complexes with Spt4 as a 1:1 heterodimer snf this Spt5-Spt4 complex regulates early transcription elongation by RNA polymerase II and has an imputed role in pre-mRNA processing via its physical association with mRNA capping enzymes. The Schizosaccharomyces pombe core Spt5-Spt4 complex is a heterodimer bearing a trypsin-resistant Spt4-binding domain within the Spt5 subunit [2].

Description: The LIM-domain binding protein, binds to the LIM domain Pfam:PF00412 of LIM homeodomain proteins which are transcriptional regulators of development. Nuclear LIM interactor (NLI) / LIM domain-binding protein 1 (LDB1) Swiss:P70662 is located in the nuclei of neuronal cells during development, it is co-expressed with Isl1 in early motor neuron differentiation and has a suggested role in the Isl1 dependent development of motor neurons [4]. It is suggested that these proteins act synergistically to enhance transcriptional efficiency by acting as co-factors for LIM homeodomain and Otx class transcription factors both of which have essential roles in development [2]. The Drosophila protein Chip Swiss:O18353 is required for segmentation and activity of a remote wing margin enhancer [1]. Chip is a ubiquitous chromosomal factor required for normal expression of diverse genes at many stages of development [1]. It is suggested that Chip cooperates with different LIM domain proteins and other factors to structurally support remote enhancer-promoter interactions [1].

Description: The EF-hands can be divided into two classes: signalling proteins and buffering/transport proteins. The first group is the largest and includes the most well-known members of the family such as calmodulin, troponin C and S100B. These proteins typically undergo a calcium-dependent conformational change which opens a target binding site. The latter group is represented by calbindin D9k and do not undergo calcium dependent conformational changes.

Description: The proton-pumping NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase catalyses the electron transfer from NADH to ubiquinone linked with proton translocation across the membrane. It is the largest, most complex and least understood of the respiratory chain enzymes and is referred to as Complex I. The subunit composition of the enzyme varies between groups of organisms. Complex I originating from mammalian mitochondria contains 45 different proteins, whereas in bacteria, the corresponding complex NDH-1 consists of 14 different polypeptides. Homologues of these 14 proteins are found among subunits of the mitochondrial complex I, and therefore bacterial NDH-1 might be considered a model proton-pumping NADH dehydrogenase with a minimal set of subunits. Escherichia coli NDH-1 readily disintegrates into 3 sub-complexes: a water-soluble NADH dehydrogenase fragment (NuoE, -F, and -G),the connecting fragment (NuoB, -C, -D, and -I), and the membrane fragment (NuoA, -H, -J, -K, -L, -M, -N). In cyanobacteria and their descendants, the chloroplasts of green plants, the subunit composition of NDH-1 remains obscure. The genes for eleven subunits NdhA-NdhK, homologous to the NuoA-NuoD and NuoH-NuoN of the E. coli complex, have been found in the genome of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 which has a family of 6 ndhD genes and a family of 3 ndhF genes. Two reported multisubunit complexes, NDH-1L and NDH-1M, represent distinct NDH-1 complexes in the thylakoid membrane of Synechocystis 6803 -cyanobacterium. NDH-1L was shown to be essential for photoheterotrophic cell growth, whereas expression of NDH-1M was a prerequisite for CO2 uptake and played an important role in growth of cells at low CO2. Here we report the subunit composition of these two complexes. Fifteen proteins were discovered in NDH-1L including NdhL, a new component of the membrane fragment, and Ssl1690 (designated as NdhO), a novel peripheral subunit [1]. The cyanobacterial NDH-1 complex contains additional subunits, NdhM and NdhN, compared with the minimal set of the bacterial enzyme and these seem to be specific for thylakoid-located NDH-1 of photosynthetic organisms [2]. The three subunits of NDH-1, NdhM, NdhN and NdhO are essential for effecting cyclic electron flow around photosystem I, by supplying extra-ATP for photosynthesis in both plastids and cyanobacteria [3, 4].

Description: HPC2 (Histone promoter control 2) is required for cell-cycle regulation of histone transcription [1]. It regulates transcription of the histone genes during the S-phase of the cell cycle by repressing transcription at other cell cycle stages. HPC2 mutants display synthetic interactions with FACT complex which allows RNA Pol II to elongate through nucleosomes [2]. Hpc2 is one of the proteins of one of the multi-subunit complexes that mediate replication- independent nucleosome assembly, along with histone chaperone proteins. the Hip4 sequence from SCH. pombe is an integral component of this complex that is required for transcriptional silencing at multiple loci [3]. HPC2, ubinuclein/yemanuclein, and the cell cycle regulator FLJ25778 share a conserved domain that is predicted to bind histone tails [4]. This domain is also referred to as the HRD or Hpc2-related domain.

This enzyme is found in archaeal, bacterial and eukaryotic species, and is specifically responsible for the process which leads to the removal of 8-oxoguanine residues.
