Powering down the Pfam website
On October 5th, we began redirecting traffic from Pfam (pfam.xfam.org) to InterPro (www.ebi.ac.uk/interpro). The Pfam website will remain available at pfam-legacy.xfam.org until January 2023, when it will be decommissioned. You can read more about the sunset period in our blog post.

Clan: DinB (CL0310)

Summary

DinB-like superfamily Add an annotation

This superfamily are thought to be metalloenzymes. They possess a four helical bundle core structure with a beta hairpin. Members of the superfamily have a predicted active site composed of three histidines that chelate Nickel or Zinc. In some cases these histidines are replaced with Aspartate or Glutamate. Mostly they form a dimeric structure. The dinB gene is one of the DNA-damage-induced genes and the corresponding protein, DinB, is the founding member of the clan. The protein contains a four-helix up-down-down-up bundle that has previously been described in the literature in three disparate proteins: the enzyme MDMPI (mycothiol-dependent maleylpyruvate isomerase), YfiT and TTHA0303, a member of a small DUF (domain of unknown function). Most (but not all) clan members seem to have the ability to coordinate a metal ion using a conserved histidine-triad motif. The proteins that share the fold exhibit four different quaternary structures: monomeric and three different dimeric forms [1].

This clan contains 8 families and the total number of domains in the clan is 39038. The clan was built by A Bateman.

Structures

For those sequences which have a structure in the Protein DataBank, we use the mapping between UniProt, PDB and Pfam coordinate systems from the MSD group, to allow us to map Pfam domains onto UniProt three-dimensional structures. The table below shows the mapping between the Pfam families in this clan, the corresponding UniProt entries, and the region of the three-dimensional structures that are available for that sequence.
