5.Acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds, other than peptide bonds
1.In linear amides
succinate
+ LL-2,6-diaminoheptanedioateH2O
LL-2,6-diaminoheptanedioate
Belongs to a family of enzymes that share a few characteristics. They hydrolyse peptidic bonds in
substrates that share a common structure, they are dependent on cobalt or zinc
for their activity and they are proteins of 40 Kd to 60 Kd with a number of
regions of sequence similarity.
As signature patterns for these proteins, it has been selected two of the conserved
regions. The first pattern contains a conserved histidine which could be
involved in binding metal ions and the second pattern contains a number of
conserved charged residues. Also belongs to the family yhe enzyme acetylornithine
deacetylase (EC 3.5.1.16).
