Chromosome 1 open reading frame 41 Structure

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).
