| Type: | Domain | Name: | GTP1/OBG domain |
| Description: | Several proteins have recently been shown to contain the 5 structural motifs characteristic of GTP-binding proteins []. These include murine DRG protein; GTP1 proteinfrom Schizosaccharomyces pombe; OBG protein from Bacillus subtilis; and several others. Although the proteins contain GTP-binding motifs and are similar to each other, they donot share sequence similarity to other GTP-binding proteins, and have thus been classed as a novel group, the GTP1/OBG family. As yet, the functions of these proteins is uncertain,but they have been shown to be important in development and normal cell metabolism [, ]. | Short Name: | GTP1_OBG_dom |
