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.
Amos Bairoch

Data class Domain;
Predictors PROSITE; PS52071; GPN_LOOP_GTPASE
Name GPN-loop GTPase domain
Function GPN-loop GTPases are assembly chaperones for RNA polymerase II (Pol II) and other protein complexes. This family of conserved GTPases has been named GPN-loop GTPases due to the presence of a conserved Gly-Pro-Asn motif inserted into the GTPase core-fold. GPN-loop GTPases form homo- and heterodimers.
Scope(s) Eukaryota
Archaea
Pyrococcus
Example(s) Q4V7Z0;
