Task: Question Generation
Input (English): Context: RpfB is a key factor in resuscitation from dormancy of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This protein is a cell-wall glycosidase, which cleaves cell-wall peptidoglycan. RpfB is structurally complex and is composed of three types of domains, including a catalytic, a G5 and three DUF348 domains. Structural information is currently limited to a portion of the protein including only the catalytic and G5 domains. To gain insights into the structure and function of all domains we have undertaken structural investigations on a large protein fragment containing all three types of domains that constitute RpfB (RpfB3D).', 'The structural features of RpfB3D have been investigated combining x-ray crystallography and biophysical studies.
Answer: The crystal structure of RpfB3D provides the first structural characterization of a DUF348 domain and revealed an unexpected structural relationship with ubiquitin. The crystal structure also provides specific structural features of these domains explaining their frequent association with G5 domains.
Output (English): Does the structure of Resuscitation promoting factor B from M. tuberculosis reveal unexpected ubiquitin-like domains?
