InterPro : IPR004517

Name  ATP phosphoribosyltransferase regulatory subunit Short Name  HisZ
Type  Family Description  Protein in this entry are mostly annotated as the ATP phosphoribosyltransferase regulatory subunit (HisZ). However, this entry also includes some histidine-tRNA ligases (HisS or HisRS), which is the paralogue of HisZ. Despite the significant sequential and structural similarity, HisRS and HisZ have different functions []. HisRS is a class IIa aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (ligase), while HisZ is a regulatory subunit of the hetero-octameric ATP phosphoribosyl transferase that regulate reactions initiating histidine biosynthesis [, ]. From the phylogenetic analysis, HisZ proteins form a monophyletic group that attaches outside the predominant bacterial HisRS clade []. HisZ are represented in a highly divergent set of bacteria (including an aquificale, cyanobacteria, firmicutes, and proteobacteria), but are missing from other bacteria, including mycrobacteria and certain proteobacteria []. It has been suggested that the absences of HisZ from bacteria are due to its loss during evolution [].
