TPCK — Fusarium graminearum PH-1

Summary

FGRAMPH1_01G05595 (symbol TPCK, also known as aurZ) in Fusarium graminearum PH-1 encodes a protein with an EthD domain and a dimeric α/β-barrel fold, annotated with lyase and monooxygenase activities as well as redox activity. The gene is associated with pigment anabolism and linked to the related gene AURZ. It is also connected to the protein GIP6, which centres on YWA1. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to decarboxylase and oxidoreductase functions (EC 4.1.1.- and 1.-.-.-), and to oxidative stress response.
