The zinc knuckle is a zinc binding motif composed of the the following CX2CX4HX4C where X can be any amino acid. The motifs are mostly from retroviral gag proteins (nucleocapsid). Prototype structure is from HIV. Also contains members involved in eukaryotic gene regulation, such as C. elegans GLH-1. Structure is an 18-residue zinc finger.
Poly(A) RNA polymerase, mitochondrial-like, central palm domain
This domain is found in human Poly(A) RNA polymerase, mitochondrial (MTPAP) and similar proteins from eukaryotes. MTPAP is a noncanonical polymerase that creates the 3' poly(A) tail of mitochondrial transcripts. It contains three domains: a N-termina ...
This domain is found in human Poly(A) RNA polymerase, mitochondrial (MTPAP) and similar proteins from eukaryotes. MTPAP is a noncanonical polymerase that creates the 3' poly(A) tail of mitochondrial transcripts. It contains three domains: a N-terminal domain RL (Pfam:PF17797) and the canonical palm (this entry) and fingers domains. This domain shows a five -stranded beta-sheet with the three catalytic aspartic acid residues located on its surface [6], together with several alpha- helices, forming an alpha-beta configuration.
