Protein Domain : ARC6, IMS domain IPR025344

Type  Domain
Description  This domain corresponds to the C-terminal intermembrane space (IMS) region from Protein ACCUMULATION AND REPLICATION OF CHLOROPLASTS 6 (ARC6) and its paralogue PARC6 [ ]. ARC6 and PARC6 are components of the plastid division machinery which are essential for the chloroplast replication process [, ], which implies the assembly and constriction of the tubulin-like FtsZ ring on the stromal surface of the inner envelope membrane (IEM) and the dynamin-like ARC5ring on the cytosolic surface of the outer envelope membrane (OEM). ARC6 is evolutionarily related to the cyanobacterial cell division protein Ftn2/ZipN [ ], having similar structures. This domain from ARC6 and PARC6 interacts with PDV2 and PDV1 respectively. PDV proteins recruit dynamin-like ARC5 ring to the chloroplast surface and mediate its constriction. ARC6/PARC6 are key to connect and coordinate FtsZ and ARC5 rings during fission [, ].
