Type: | Domain | Name: | Diphthamide synthase domain |
Description: | Diphthamide_syn, diphthamide synthase, catalyses the last amidation step of diphthamide biosynthesis using ammonium and ATP. Diphthamide synthase is evolutionarily conserved in eukaryotes. Diphthamide is a post-translationally modified histidine residue found on archaeal and eukaryotic translation elongation factor 2 (eEF-2) []. | Short Name: | Diphthami_syn_dom |
