Protein Domain : Cobalamin-independent methionine synthase MetE, N-terminal IPR013215

Type  Domain
Description  Cobalamin-independent methionine synthase, MetE, catalyses the synthesis of the amino acid methionine by the transfer of a methyl group from methyltetrahydrofolate to homocysteine [ ]. The N-terminal and C-terminal domains of MetE together define a catalytic cleft in the enzyme. The N-terminal domain is thought to bind the substrate, in particular, the negatively charged polyglutamate chain. The N-terminal domain is also thought to stabilise a loop from the C-terminal domain.
