This domain is found in uncharacterised bacterial proteins, including the putative peptidoglycan hydrolase Rv2525c from Mycobacterium tuberculosis [1,2]. It has been proposed to function as a peptidoglycan hydrolase with glycosidase activity regarding structural studies showed that this domain has a typical TIM-barrel-like fold, characteristic of glycoside hydrolases [1]. However, it displays esterase activity toward p-nitrophenyl esters of various acyl chain length in vitro [2].
