Type: | Domain | Name: | Biotin and thiamin synthesis-associated domain |
Description: | This domain is found in biotin synthase and 2-iminoacetate synthase. The latter enzyme is involved in thiamine diphosphate biosynthesis. The reactions catalysed by these enzymes involve the binding of co-factors and both enzymes function as dimers [, ]. This domain may therefore be involved in co-factor binding or dimerisation. The domain is also found in proteins that are currently uncharacterised, such as . | Short Name: | BATS_dom |
