Black ribbon
We are deeply saddened by the passing of Amos Bairoch (1957–2025), the creator of PROSITE. We wish to dedicate our latest paper, published shortly before his death, to him. He will always be a source of inspiration to us.
Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends, and to all those who had the privilege of working with him. Rest in peace, Amos. Your work will live on long after you are gone.

Description

The ATP-cone domain is an ATP-binding module of ~85-90 residues, which is found in association with other domains such as class I+II and class III ribonucleotide reductases (see <PDOC00084>), the P-loop kinase or a zinc ribbon. It can be found as a single copy or in two-three tandem copies [1].

The ATP-cone is a compact, globular N-terminal domain which includes four α-helices and three β-strands (see <PDB:3R1R>). The structure of the ATP-cone domain resembles a cone with the surface formed by the four helices and the top by a three-stranded β-sheet. ATP is bound at the top of the cone just below the β-sheet [1].

Some proteins known to contain an ATP-cone domain are listed below:

  • Ribonucleotide reductases (RNRs).
  • Archaeal and deinococcal 2-phophoglycerate kinases (2-PGKs).
  • Bacterial ybaD-like proteins.

The profile we developed covers the entire ATP-cone domain.
