General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
evolution | the enzyme belongs to the DNase I superfamily, which contains the exo-endo-phosphatase domain, the domain lacks only in isozyme Sph4, all isozymes lack the beta-hairpin loop, the organism encodes genes Sph1, Sph2, Sph3, Sph4 and SphH, structure comparisons, overview | Leptospira interrogans |
additional information | isozyme Sph2 structure homology modeling, the isozyme Sph2 is unique and possesses the Mg2+-binding Glu53 residue in the metal-binding site and two His residues, His151 and His286, in the catalytic site | Leptospira interrogans |
physiological function | the recombinant isozyme Sph2 performs the Mg2+ -dependent hemolysis of erythrocytes | Leptospira interrogans |
