Protein Domain : Uncharacterised protein family HutD/Ves IPR010282

Type  Family
Description  This entry contains proteins of unknown function, which include HutD from Pseudomonas fluorescens and Ves from Escherichia coli K12.HutD from P. fluorescens is a component of the histidine uptake and utilisation operon. HutD is operonic with the well characterised repressor protein HutC. Genetic analysis using transcriptional fusions (lacZ) and deletion mutants shows that hutD is necessary to maintain fitness in environments replete with histidine. HutD probably sets an upper bound on the level of hut operon transcription [ ]. The mechanistic basis is unknown, but in silico molecular docking studies based on the crystal structure of HutD from Pseudomonas aeruginosa show that urocanate (the first breakdown product of histidine) docks with the active site of HutD.
