We present a detailed evolutionary and structural analysis of the NlpC/P60 superfamily of peptidases.
While there is no directly detectable sequence similarity between the NlpC/P60 proteins and other superfamilies of peptidases, the arrangement of catalytic residues, with respect to the conserved secondary elements, in this superfamily is the same as that in several other peptidase superfamilies (Figure 2).
Some well studied examples of these peptidases include Zn-dependent peptidases of the Hedgehog carboxy-terminal domain fold and the DD-peptidases with a PAS domain-like fold [ 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17].
All characterized members of this family are peptidases, and they either hydrolyze the D-γ-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelate linkage or N -acetylmuramate- L-alanine linkage [ 19, 25].
Biochemical and structural analysis of the peptide-hydrolyzing enzymes of bacteria have revealed a large diversity of peptidases with different catalytic mechanisms.
