| Type: | Family | Name: | DMSO reductase family, type II, chaperone |
| Description: | The DMSO reductase family is a large and rapidly expanding group of enzymes found in bacteria and archaea that share a common form of molybdenum cofactor known as bis(molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide)Mo [].Type II members of the DMSO reductase family are heterotrimeric proteins with bis(molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide)Mo, iron-sulphur, and haem B prosthetic groups bound by the alpha, beta, and gamma subunits respectively [, , ]. This entry represents polypeptides that are not part of the mature protein, although they are the product of a fourth clustered gene, and are thought to function as chaperones, analogous to NarJ of nitrate reductases. | Short Name: | DMSO_Rdtase_II_chaperone |
