Abstract

Fumarylacetoacetase (; also known as fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase or FAH) catalyses the hydrolytic cleavage of a carbon-carbon bond in fumarylacetoacetate to yield fumarate and acetoacetate as the final step in phenylalanine and tyrosine degradation [PubMed11154690]. This is an essential metabolic function in humans, the lack of FAH causing type I tyrosinaemia, which is associated with liver and kidney abnormalities and neurological disorders [PubMed9101289, PubMed16602095]. The enzyme mechanism involves a catalytic metal ion, a Glu/His catalytic dyad, and a charged oxyanion hole [PubMed10508789]. FAH folds into two domains: an N-terminal domain SH3-like beta-barrel, and a C-terminal with an unusual fold consisting of three layers of beta-sheet structures [PubMed10508789].

This entry represents the C-terminal domain of fumarylacetoacetase, as well as other domains that share a homologous alpha/beta structure, including:

  • 5-carboxymethyl-2-hydroxymuconate delta-isomerase (CHM isomerase), which catalyses the conversion of 5-carboxymethyl-2-hydroxymuconate to 5-carboxy-2-oxohept-3-enedioate [PubMed2194841].
  • 5-oxopent-3-ene-1,2,5-tricarboxylate decarboxylase (OPET decarboxylase), which catalyses the conversion of 5-oxopent-3-ene-1,2,5-tricarboxylate to 2-oxohept-3-enedioate and carbon dioxide.
  • Bifunctional enzyme HpcE (OPET decarboxylase /HHDD isomerase ), which is a duplication consisting of a tandem repeat of two FAH C-terminal-like domains. This enzyme is responsible for the degradation of 4-hydroxyphenylacetate, a product of tyrosine and phenylalanine metabolism also released by lignin catabolism [PubMed11863436].
  • 2-keto-4-pentenoate hydratase MhpD (; also known as 2-oxopent-4-enoate hydratase), which converts 4-hydroxy-2-oxopentanoate to 2-oxopent-4-enoate [PubMed10537203].
  • 4-oxalocrotonate decarboxylase (4-OD), which catalyses the conversion of 4-oxalocrotonate to 2-oxopent-4-enoate and carbon dioxide [PubMed10651637].
  • 2-oxo-hepta-3-ene-1,7-dioic acid hydratase, which hydrates the double bond of 2-oxo-hepta-3-ene-1,7-dioic acid to form 4-hydroxy-2-oxo-heptane-1,7-dioic acid in the catabolism of 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid.

Browse genome assignments for this superfamily. The SUPERFAMILY hidden Markov model library has been used to carry out SCOP domain assignments to all genomes at the superfamily level.


Alignments of sequences to 12 models in this superfamily are available by clicking on the 'Alignments' icon above. PDB sequences less than 40% identical are shown by default, but any other sequence(s) may be aligned. Select PDB sequences, genome sequences, or paste in or upload your own sequences.


Browse and view proteins in genomes which have different domain combinations including a FAH domain.


Examine the distribution of domain superfamilies, or families, across the major taxonomic kingdoms or genomes within a kingdom. This gives an immediate impression of how superfamilies, or families, are restricted to certain kingdoms of life.


Explore domain occurrence network where nodes represent genomes and edges are domain architectures (shared between genomes) containing the superfamily of interest.

There are 12 hidden Markov models representing the FAH superfamily. Information on how the models are built, and plots showing hydrophobicity, match emmission probabilities and insertion/deletion probabilities can be inspected.
