Protein Domain : Galactokinase, N-terminal domain IPR019539

Type  Domain
Description  This entry represents an N-terminal conserved domain found in all galactokinases, irrespective of how many other ATP binding sites, etc that they carry [ ]. The function of this domain appears to be to bind galactose [], and it is normally located at the N terminus of these enzymes []. It is associated with and . While all enzymes in this entry posses galactokinase activity, some are annotated as N-acetylgalactosamine kinases as they also posses this enzyme activity. This domain can also be found in mevalonate kinase and related proteins from all domains of life. It can also be found in arabinose kinase from Arabidopsis [ ].
