This family of proteins is found in bacteria. Proteins in this family are approximately 60 amino acids in length. There is a conserved N-terminal MPT sequence motif. AlphaFold predicts that this protein is composed of an N-terminal alpha helix followed by a four stranded beta sheet. AlphaFold also predicts the protein forms a strong dimer interface. It shows some weak structural similarity to the N-terminal domain of RnlA toxin.

These families have been collected together in the Pfam database using the prefix DUF followed by a number, with examples being DUF2992 and DUF1220. As of 2019, there are almost 4,000 DUF families within the Pfam database representing over 22% of known families. Some DUFs are not named using the nomenclature due to popular usage but are nevertheless DUFs.
