Type: | Domain | Name: | Putative urate catabolism protein |
Description: | This entry represents a protein that is predominantly found just upstream of the UraD protein (OHCU decarboxylase) and in a number of instances as a N-terminal fusion with it. UraD itself catalyses the last step in the catabolism of urate to allantoate []. The function of this protein is presently unknown. It shows homology with the polysaccharide deacetylase domain family. | Short Name: | Urate_catabol_UraD_N |
