This entry represents the second palm domain of Cas10 subunit (named Csm1 in Type III-A and Cmr2 in III-B systems) from type III CRISPR-Cas systems [6]. This domain contains a conserved GGDD motif that is important for DNA polymerase activity [1-5].
This domain is found in the Csm1 subunit of the Csm complex found in Thermococcus onnurineus. Csm is a type III-A CRISPR-Cas system, which is an RNA-guided immune defense mechanism that detects and destroys foreign DNA or RNA. This domain is known as ...
This domain is found in the Csm1 subunit of the Csm complex found in Thermococcus onnurineus. Csm is a type III-A CRISPR-Cas system, which is an RNA-guided immune defense mechanism that detects and destroys foreign DNA or RNA. This domain is known as domain A and is positioned side by side with domain C. Both domain A and domain C adopt the BABBA topology. Domain A interacts primarily with domain B [1].
