Nucleoside Triphosphate Pyrophosphohydrolase (EC 3.6.1.8) MazG-like domain putative pyrophosphatase YpjD from Bacillus subtilis and its bacterial homologs
This family includes a putative pyrophosphatase Ypjd from Bacillus subtilis (BsYpjD) and its homologs. Although its biological role has not been described in detail, BsYpjD shows significant sequence similarity to the dimeric 2-deoxyuridine 5'-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase (dUTP pyrophosphatase or dUTPase) and NTP-PPase MazG proteins. However, unlike typical tandem-domain MazG proteins, BsYpjD contains a single MazG-like domain.
