This domain represents the N-terminal domain of 6-phospho-N-acetylmuramidase (MupG) from Staphylococcus aureus [[cite:PUB00097906]], also found in putative phospho sugar glycosidases from Gram-negative and -positive species, but mainly firmicutes. MupG [[cite:PUB00097906]], specifically cleaves MurNAc 6P-GlcNAc, a product of cell wall turnover, into the sugars MurNAc 6P and GlcNAc, involved in cell wall turnover and recycling. Since some species, for example Lactobacillus plantarum, possess several putative paralogs, the substrate specificity of the proteins containing this domain may not be limited to cell wall sugars, but may include phosphorylated disaccharides in general. Most of these proteins appear to consist of two structural subdomains, as it can be seen in the two available crystal structures of Enterococcus faecalis (PDB:2p0o) and Bacillus cereus (PDB:1X7F). This entry is the larger N-terminal domain that constitutes a TIM-barrel like structure and the C-terminal domain is similar to the cyclophilin family. It should be noted that some proteins lack the C-terminal domain.
