Protein Domain : NB-ARC IPR002182

Type  Domain
Description  This is the NB-ARC domain, a novel signalling motif found in bacteria and eukaryotes, shared by plant resistance gene products and regulators of cell death in animals [ ]. This domain has been structurally characterised in the human protein apoptotic protease-activating factor 1 (Apaf-1) []. It contains the three-layered α-β fold and subsequent short α-helical region characteristic of the AAA+ ATPase domain superfamily. While this domain is thought to bind and hyrolyse ATP, only ADP binding has been experimentally verified. It is proposed that binding and hydrolysis of ATP by this domain induces conformational changes the the overall protein, leading to formation of the apoptosome.
