How can you use “ec-” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
All of the predicted amino acid sequences except Ec-MoeB, Mlo-MoeZdR, and Pa-MoeB also have C-terminal similarity (BLAST E value < 1 -12) to a rhodanese-like domain (Pfam00581) (Figure 2c, Table 2) [ 26 ] . Rhodanese, a thiosulfate:cyanide sulfurtransferase (EC 2.8.
In Ec-MoeB, β sheet 5 (residues 149-155 of Ec-MoeB, Figure 3) forms part of the pocket which accepts the C-terminal portion of MoaD, of which the terminal glycine is subsequently adenylated [ 7 ] . Ec-MoeB I155, located at the C-terminal end of this beta loop, is substituted in MoeBR proteins by Y and in MoeZ proteins by F or Y. These bulky substitutions may restrict access of the C-terminus of MoeD-like proteins and may indicate that a different type of substrate is adenylated by MoeBR and MoeZ.
All 12 sequences in this region have high similarity to the derived consensus sequence GXGXXG(7X)A(SX)GXGXXG(4X)D(9X)R, which defines a nucleotide binding motif [ 16 25 ] . In addition, all sequences have five residues, or conservative substitutions in the case of Pa-MoeB, shown to participate in the adenylation reaction catalyzed by Ec-MoeB (Figure 3) [ 7 ] . The fact that such high similarities are retained in the ThiF coding region across three bacterial divisions suggests that this domain functions more or less autonomously.
MoeBR has the ThiF and 2X CXXC domains configured like MoeB but includes an N-terminal rhodanese-like domain, the polyproline motif, and has a Y substitution at position 155 (Ec-MoeB numbering).
MoeB, exemplified by Ec-MoeB, and MoeBR, exemplified by cnxF of Aspergillis nidulans [ 16 ] , participate in the synthesis of MPT-Mo as MSAEs.
