CommentThis HMM describes the type II glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenases which are limited to archaea. These enzymes catalyze the interconversion of 1,3-diphosphoglycerate and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate, a central step in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. In archaea, either NAD or NADP may be utilized as the cofactor. The class I GAPDH's from bacteria and eukaryotes are covered by TIGR01534. All of the members of the seed are characterized. See, for instance [1]. This model is very solid, there are no species falling between trusted and noise at this time. The closest relatives scoring in the noise are the class I GAPDH's.
