Protein Domain : Methylglyoxal synthase-like domain IPR011607

Type  Domain
Description  Methylglyoxal synthase (MGS, ), which catalyses the conversion of dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) to methylglyoxal (MG) and inorganic phosphate, has been found in many organisms, including enteric bacteria, some gram-positive bacteria, a number of archaebacteria, several yeast species and goat liver [ , ].The main core of the MGS-like domain, a modified 'Rossmann' fold, is characterised by a five stranded parallel β-sheet flanked on either side by three and five α-helices, respectively [ , ]. MGS-like domains share a conserved phosphate binding site [, ].
