Description | This entry represents the N-terminal domain of the ornithine cyclodeanimase family. This is an α/β two layer sandwich domain. Members of this family includes ornithine cyclodeanimase [ ], alanine dehydrogenase from Archaeoglobus [] and human cytosolic 3,5,39-triiodo-L-thyronine-binding protein, also called mu-crystallin or CRYM []. The function of this domain in ornithine cyclodeaminases, in combination with the C terminus, is responsible for substrate binding. This is a dimerisation domain of alanine dehydrogenase and CRYM. | Name | Ornithine cyclodeaminase, N-terminal |
