Protein Domain : Biotin protein ligase, C-terminal IPR003142

Type  Domain
Description  This C-terminal domain has an SH3-like barrel fold, the function of which is unknown. It is found associated with prokaryotic bifunctional transcriptional repressors [ ] and eukaryotic enzymes involved in biotin utilization [, ]. In Escherichia coli the biotin operon repressor (BirA) is a bifunctional protein. BirA acts both as the acetyl-coA carboxylase biotin holoenzyme synthetase ( ) and as the biotin operon repressor. DNA sequence analysis of mutations indicates that the helix-turn-helix DNA binding region is located at the N terminus while mutations affecting enzyme function, although mapping over a large region, are found mainly in the central part of the protein's primary sequence [ ].
