Type: | Family | Name: | Cyclically-permuted mutarotase family |
Description: | Members of this protein family show essentially full-length homology, cyclically permuted, to YjhT from Escherichia coli. YjhT was shown to act as a mutarotase for sialic acid, and by this ability to be able to act as a virulence factor. Members of the YjhT family () and this cyclically-permuted family have multiple copies of the beta-propeller-forming Kelch repeat. | Short Name: | Cycl-permuted_mutarotase |
