General rule information [?]

Accession PRU00773
Dates 8-APR-2009 (Created)
17-FEB-2023 (Last updated, Version 10)
Data class Domain;
Predictors PROSITE; PS51443; PCS
Name Phytochelatin synthase (PCS) domain
Function Phytochelatins (PCs) are synthesized posttranslationally by the PC synthase (PCS) (EC 2.3.2.15), a gamma-glutamylcysteine (gamma-EC) transpeptidase. PC synthesis is proposed to have two distinct steps: (Step1) formation of gamma-EC concomitant with the cleavage of Gly from GSH; and (Step 2) transfer of the gamma-EC unit to an acceptor GSH molecule or an oligomeric PC peptide (PCn).
Scope(s) Eukaryota
Bacteria
Cyanobacteriota
Example(s) Q2TE74 (PCS2_LOTJA);
