Protein Domain : IPR005494

Type:  Domain Name:  Glutathionylspermidine synthase, pre-ATP-grasp-like domain
Description:  Glutathionylspermidine (GSP) synthetases of Trypanosomatidae and Escherichia coli couple hydrolysis of ATP (to ADP and Pi) with formation of an amide bond between spermidine and the glycine carboxylate of glutathione (gamma-Glu-Cys-Gly). In the pathogenic trypanosomatids, this reaction is the penultimate step in the biosynthesis of the antioxidant metabolite, trypanothione (N1,N8-bis-(glutathionyl)spermidine), and is a target for drug design []. This domain, which is structurally related to the pre-ATP grasp domain, probably carries the substrate-binding site []. Short Name:  GSPS_pre-ATP-grasp-like_dom
