Based on the DALI result, sialidases have similar structures to our protein. However, the sequence identity between our protein and sialidase proteins are small (~22). Sialidases are enzymes that cleave sialic acids from various glyco-conjugates (Newsted et al., 2005).
Another enzyme that our protein is similar in structure to is galactose oxidase. This enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of D-galactose to D-galacto-hexodialdose and H2O2 (Ito et al., 1991).
This protein's secondary structure consists of 2 alpha helices and 9 beta sheets.
