Rhamnogalacturonan lyase of the polysaccharide lyase family 11. The rhamnogalacturonan lyase of the polysaccharide lyase family 11 (RGL11) cleaves glycoside bonds in polygalacturonan as well as RG (rhamnogalacturonan) type-I through a beta-elimination reaction. Functionally characterized members of this family, YesW and YesX from Bacillus subtilis, cleave glycoside bonds between rhamnose and galacturonic acid residues in the RG-I region of plant cell wall pectin. YesW and YesX work synergistically, with YesW cleaving the glycoside bond of the RG chain endolytically, and YesX converting the resultant oligosaccharides through an exotype reaction. This domain is sometimes found in architectures with non-catalytic carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs). There are two types of RG lyases, which both cleave the alpha-1,4 bonds of the RG-I main chain through a beta-elimination reaction, but belong to two structurally unrelated polysaccharide lyase (PL) families, 4 and 11.

Rhamnogalacturonan I lyases beta-sheet domain. This is the beta-sheet domain found in rhamnogalacturonan (RG) lyases, which are responsible for an initial cleavage of the RG type I (RG-I) region of plant cell wall pectin. Polysaccharide lyase family 11 carrying this domain, such as YesW (EC:4.2.2.23) and YesX (EC:4.2.2.24), cleave glycoside bonds between rhamnose and galacturonic acid residues in RG-I through a beta-elimination reaction. Other family members carrying this domain are hemagglutinin A, lysine gingipain (Kgp) and Chitinase C (EC:3.2.1.14).

Peptidase associated domain: C-terminal domain of M14 N/E carboxypeptidase; putative folding, regulation, or interaction domain. This domain is found C-terminal to the M14 carboxypeptidase (CP) N/E subfamily containing zinc-binding enzymes that hydrolyze single C-terminal amino acids from polypeptide chains, and have a recognition site for the free C-terminal carboxyl group, which is a key determinant of specificity. The N/E subfamily includes enzymatically active members (carboxypeptidase N, E, M, D, and Z), as well as non-active members (carboxypeptidase-like protein 1, -2, aortic CP-like protein, and adipocyte enhancer binding protein-1) which lack the critical active site and substrate-binding residues considered necessary for activity. The active N/E enzymes fulfill a variety of cellular functions, including prohormone processing, regulation of peptide hormone activity, alteration of protein-protein or protein-cell interactions and transcriptional regulation. For M14 CPs, it has been suggested that this domain may assist in folding of the CP domain, regulate enzyme activity, or be involved in interactions with other proteins or with membranes; for carboxypeptidase M, it may interact with the bradykinin 1 receptor at the cell surface. This domain may also be found in other peptidase families.

PT repeat. This short repeat is composed on the tetrapeptide XPTX. This repeat is found in a variety of proteins, however it is not clear if these repeats are homologous to each other. The alignment represents nine copies of this repeat.
