| PF18040 | beta porphyranase A C-terminal | domain |
This is the C-terminal domain found in Bacteroides plebeius of proteins such as beta-porphyranase A (BPA), a beta-galactanase that cleaves the beta-1,4 glycosidic bond . Porphyranase degrade red seaweed glycans. This domain adopts a beta sandwich shape [1].
