Protein Domain : 2-isopropylmalate synthase LeuA, allosteric (dimerisation) domain IPR013709

Type  Domain
Description  This is the C-terminal regulatory (R) domain of alpha-isopropylmalate synthase, which catalyses the first committed step in the leucine biosynthetic pathway [ ]. This domain, is an internally duplicated structure with a novel fold []. It comprises two similar units that are arranged such that the two helices pack together in the centre, crossing at an angle of 34 degrees, sandwiched between the two three-stranded, antiparallel β-sheets. The overall domain is thus constructed as a beta-α-β three-layer sandwich [].
