******************************************************
* Glycosyl hydrolases family 39 putative active site *
******************************************************
It has been shown [1,E1] that the following glycosyl hydrolases can be
classified into a single family on the basis of sequence similarities:
- Mammalian lysosomal alpha-L-iduronidase (EC 3.2.1.76).
- Caldocellum saccharolyticum and Thermoanaerobacter saccharolyticum beta-
xylosidase (EC 3.2.1.37) (gene xynB).
The best conserved regions in these enzymes is located in the N-terminal
section. It contains a glutamic acid residue which, on the basis of
similarities with other families of glycosyl hydrolases [2], probably acts as
the proton donor in the catalytic mechanism. We use this region as a signature
pattern.
-Consensus pattern: W-x-F-E-x-W-N-E-P-[DN]
[The second E may be the active site residue]
-Sequences known to belong to this class detected by the pattern: ALL.
-Other sequence(s) detected in Swiss-Prot: NONE.
