Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, GTP-utilising, conserved site

InterPro entry
Short namePEP_carboxykin_GTP_CS

Description

This entry represents a conserved site found in GTP-utilising phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase enzymes. An essential cysteine residue has been proposed
[1]
to be implicated in the catalytic mechanism; this residue is located in the central part of PEPCK and is in the centre of a perfectly conserved region.
