C-terminal domain of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HppD) and hydroxymandelate Synthase (HmaS). HppD and HmaS are non-heme iron-dependent dioxygenases, which modify a common substrate, 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate (HPP), but yield different products. HPPD catalyzes the second reaction in tyrosine catabolism, the conversion of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate to homogentisate (2,5-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, HG). HmaS converts HPP to 4-hydroxymandelate, a committed step in the formation of hydroxyphenylglycerine, a structural component of nonproteinogenic macrocyclic peptide antibiotics, such as vancomycin. If the emphasis is on catalytic chemistry, HPPD and HmaS are classified as members of a large family of alpha-keto acid dependent mononuclear non-heme iron oxygenases most of which require Fe(II), molecular oxygen, and an alpha-keto acid (typically alpha-ketoglutarate) to either oxygenate or oxidize a third substrate. Both enzymes are exceptions in that they require two, instead of three, substrates, do not use alpha-ketoglutarate, and incorporate both atoms of dioxygen into the aromatic product. Both HPPD and HmaS exhibit duplicate beta barrel topology in their N- and C-terminal domains which share sequence similarity, suggestive of a gene duplication. Each protein has only one catalytic site located in at the C-terminal domain. This HPPD_C_like domain represents the C-terminal domain.
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.
